| |
Coventry-based Dunlop Aerospace Braking Systems has been named a Supplier of the Year by Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation, the company that designs, develops, manufactures and supports advanced business jet aircraft.
The title was given at a ceremony held at Gulfstream's headquarters in Georgia, USA and reflects Dunlop Aerospace's performance in four key areas - quality, reliability, delivery and product/aftermarket support. The Meggitt group company scored an excellent rating in each area every quarter last year.
"Dunlop Aerospace has taken ownership of the supply chain and put people and processes in place that are geared towards providing excellence in all areas of the company's relationship with us," said Gulfstream's vice president of materials, Jim McQueeney.
"The result has been fantastic - the company was assessed as having excellent performance in every area that we review - and I am delighted to name Dunlop Aerospace Braking Systems as a Supplier of the Year."
Dunlop Aerospace has worked with Gulfstream for more than fifteen years, and today the company is the exclusive provider of wheels and brakes for over 700 aircraft including the ultra-long range G500 and G550 aircraft and the Gulfstream IV SP aircraft.
The company also helps operators extend the range of original Gulfstream IV jets by retrofitting wheels and carbon brakes. Gulfstream Aerospace is a General Dynamics Company.
