Vari-Form receives 2014 GM Supplier Quality Excellence Award
Vari-Form, a provider of hydroforming technology for the automotive industry, based in Troy, Mich., has received a 2014 Supplier Quality Excellence Award from General Motors. The company also won the award in 2012.
The award is focused on improving collaboration with suppliers. Winning suppliers met more than 12 quality criteria during a 12-month period that ended on June 30.
Current Vari-Form projects with GM include hydroformed aluminum frame rail components for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette® Stingray®, produced by the Vari-Form Strathroy manufacturing facility and delivered to the GM Bowling Green Assembly Plant. The rails, optimized for light weight and strength, helped GM engineers achieve a significant reduction of gross vehicle weight over previous models.
