Bosch receives Global Contribution Award for outstanding achievements from Toyota

Toyota Motor Corporation has presented its Global
Contribution Award to the Bosch Group, a leading global supplier of innovative technologies and services. This is the highest supplier honor the automaker awards, and is given in recognition of companies that have
performed outstandingly over the previous year. Continuous improvement activities and collaboration with Toyota on a global level, especially in the areas of quality, communication, smooth launch management, and cost optimisation, secured Bosch this prestigious award. This is the fourth time Bosch has received Toyota's Global Contribution Award, following the awards in 2003, 2004, and 2011.

The award was presented as part of the annual Global Supplier Conferenceat the Nagoya Congress Center. Dr. Volkmar Denner, Chairman of the Board of Management of Robert Bosch GmbH, accepted the Global Contribution Award from Fujio Cho, Chairman of Toyota on behalf of the Bosch Group.

"We are proud to receive this award, which we see as a recognition for the dedication our associates have shown," said Denner after the presentation. "Bosch will consistently strive to maintain technological leadership through innovative and efficient high quality products."

In 2013, Bosch also won the 'Superior Value Improvement Award' for its cost-competitive products. The factor that was most instrumental in clinching this award for Bosch was the development of the most cost- competitive ESC (electronic stability control) to date. This compact and lightweight antiskid system meets the increasing demand for safety technologies.
