In 2024, Poclain Hydraulics Inc. was selected by Doosan Bobcat North America to receive its first-ever Supplier Excellence Award, a recognition that highlights outstanding supplier performance across key operational metrics. This award marks a significant milestone for Poclain, especially as a relatively new supplier to Doosan Bobcat, and reflects the company’s unwavering commitment to efficiency and operational excellence.

A recognition of operational excellence and efficiency

The Supplier Excellence Award was created by Doosan Bobcat to honor its top-performing supply partners who contribute to the company’s success. Poclain stood out among nine suppliers, thanks to its results in areas such as on-time delivery, quality, and warranty performance. These metrics are part of a comprehensive supplier scorecard used by Doosan Bobcat to evaluate its partners.
This award also reflects the collective efforts of Poclain’s teams. In Yorkville, efforts have been conducted to improve delivery time, a critical factor for customer satisfaction. Meanwhile, in Pondicherry, Poclain’s recent achievements in digitalization have enhanced operational efficiency and supported the supply of motors to Doosan Bobcat.

These advancements demonstrate Poclain’s ability to deliver consistent performance across multiple production sites, reinforcing its value to customers in demanding sectors.

 A strong partnership built on trust and performance

This award not only celebrates past achievements but also strengthens the relationship between Poclain and Doosan Bobcat, opening doors for future collaboration and shared success.
