Ryder Honored with Delphi's Above & Beyond Award

MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ryder System, Inc., a leader in transportation and supply chain management solutions, received Delphi’s 2010 Above & Beyond Award, one of the company’s Pinnacle Family of Awards. The award, established in 2006 and presented annually, recognizes suppliers for special service events that went beyond contractual obligations during the 2010 calendar year.

“We value our longstanding relationship with Delphi and appreciate their confidence in our ability to meet their service levels.”

Ryder provides supply chain design and execution activities for Delphi’s North American network, as well as cross dock and transportation services for Delphi in the U.S. and Mexico.

This award was presented to Ryder specifically for its actions during Hurricane Alex in 2010. Ryder took aggressive steps to ensure the Delphi operations were not affected by the impending storm. As the Hurricane approached, Ryder’s team of logistics experts located at Delphi’s cross dock operations modified their processes to allow for extended storage and metering of material so that plant operations could continue without interruption. This year, Delphi recognized 18 suppliers from nine countries with its 2010 Above & Beyond Award.

“We are honored once again to be recognized for our commitment to best-in-class operational execution,” said Ryder President of Global Supply Chain Solutions John Williford. “We value our longstanding relationship with Delphi and appreciate their confidence in our ability to meet their service levels.”

"Congratulations to Ryder,” said Sid Johnson, vice president, Delphi Global Supply Management. “Please extend our congratulations to your team for their many contributions at our facilities and for their dedication to excellence."
