PORT HURON, Michigan --- GMA Cover Corporation was honored by the Defense Supply Center Columbus (DSCC) as one of the government’s best suppliers at an Automated Best Value System (ABVS) award ceremony held during the center’s Supplier Conference August 31, 2004.

Brian Keller, President of GMA, Mary Depner, Contracts Manager, and Leigh Merritt, Sales Manager, accepted the Silver Award from DSCC Commander, Navy Rear Admiral Linda J. Bird.

GMA is a leading manufacturer of fitted camouflage systems for tactical vehicles.   Products include fitted cargo covers and cab tops for tactical vehicles as well as integrated camouflage systems tailored to the respective vehicle.

Keller stated that “GMA is proud to receive this award recognizing the quality of our products, the timeliness of our deliveries and our overall value to the Department of Defense.  Only 2% of the 7,000 government contractors conducting business with DSCC earn this award annually. Our employees are justifiably proud to be in this select group.”

Firms that qualify as ABVS Award winners have met stringent quality and delivery requirements established by the Defense Logistics Agency.  The ABVS, a computerized system, collects a vendor’s past performance data and translates it into a numeric score ranging from zero to 100.  GMA, as a Silver Award winner had an ABVS score of 99.7.
