Case Construction Equipment received its third consecutive Silver Award for excellence from the Defense Logistics Agency. The award recognizes Case’s performance in supplying replacement parts for Case wheel loaders and rough-terrain forklifts used by the U.S. military.
Case received a 99.4-percent rating for meeting DLA’s combined award criteria of on-time delivery, high-quality products and packing. The rating reflects the company’s performance in completing 1,337 shipments of parts during 2010 to U.S. military facilities. To qualify for a DLA award, a supplier must record at least 50 product shipments during the year.
The company supplies parts for machines the company built or remanufactured during the past 30 years, such as the M4K forklift, MW24C wheel loader and MC1150E crawler dozer.
In addition to previous Silver-level supplier recognition in 2009 and 2008, Case also received the DLA’s Bronze supplier award in 2006. Separately, the Defense Supply Center in Richmond, Virginia, named Case as Best Value Gold Medalist in 2009.
