July 13, 2016—Dayco announced Wednesday that it earned the Silver Supplier Certification quality excellence award from Caterpillar for two manufacturing plants in China.
The award recognizes suppliers that have achieved Caterpillar Quality Management System supplier certification, which shows a commitment to exceptional service, quality and delivery performance.
“Dayco’s associates in Wujiang are committed to achieving customer satisfaction by designing quality into our products and systems, and that is apparent in the receipt of this award from Caterpillar for the second straight year,” said John Bohenick, CEO of Dayco. “Our investments in China are a big step forward in our goal of fully supporting Caterpillar, as well as other partners, in this growing market. We thank Caterpillar for recognizing our ability to deliver high-quality products with reliable processes driven and backed by an organization with a zero defect mindset.”
From the two facilities, Dayco supplies PV belts, belt tensioners and idler pulleys to Caterpillar.
“Caterpillar continues to be a valuable customer for Dayco in the industrial market and has been for more than 50 years,” said Paul DiLisio, senior vice president of Automotive and Industrial OE Sales. “Our Associates’ long-standing commitment to close customer support and robust engineering is once again recognized and we thank Caterpillar for depending on Dayco to deliver products and systems that endure.”
