FRIEDRICHSHAFEN, Germany – ZF has been honored with four highly coveted performance awards from DAF Trucks as part of its annual Supplier Performance Management (SPM) Program.

Evaluating product development, operational support and business alignment, the awards recognize excellence across key areas including product innovation and continuous performance improvement.

ZF received DAF’s highest “Master” title, one of only two awarded from amongst some 60 companies, for its clutch product. ZF also received DAF’s “Leader” award for its transmission products as well as an “Achiever” award for its damper and chassis modules.

ZF’s new Commercial Vehicle Control Systems division, formed from its recent acquisition of WABCO, also added an overall performance “Leader” award to the group’s tally. For demonstration of value, DAF Trucks recognized WABCO’s significant quality and performance improvements over the previous year, elevating the business from “Achiever” to “Leader” – an award fewer than a quarter of DAF’s suppliers received.
