“2020 was a tough year in general, so for NSK to move to the top of the ranks is impressive,” said Joe Limbaugh, Motion Executive Vice President of Supply Chain, Operations Support, Marketing and Enterprise Excellence. “Our standards as measured through our Supply Chain process are rigorous, and improvement takes understanding, dedication, and overall hard work.

NSK rose to the occasion and we are proud of their accomplishments. Suppliers who finished in our Top 50 are the “best of the best” in our industry.” “NSK is committed to delivering value to our customers above and beyond being experts in our own business by demonstrating expertise in our partners’ and customers’ business,” said Reid Jajko, Vice President Aftermarket Business Unit, NSK Americas. “Our success is not defined by the sale of a bearing; it is defined by our ability to positively impact our partners’ operations. I cannot imagine a greater affirmation of our commitment than to receive this acknowledgment from Motion.”

Award recipients are determined based on Motion’s Supplier Stratification formula – a rating system that evaluates each supplier’s performance in a number of Supply Chain, Marketing, and Field Support categories.
