we will also hear a presentation by Pirelli Executives.
Also, as part of the program, GAMA faculty will present key concepts of GAMA's new "3P's of Supplier Success™"
program. This program, which has been very-well received to date, is based on GAMA's Supplier Essentials
Course®, and will equip component suppliers with key concepts and industry practices.
  • Manufacturers in related industries can learn key concepts and industry practices to successfully become part suppliers in the growing global automotive parts and components industry, and
  • Current automotive part suppliers can learn about new practices and trends to improve their position in the industry.
The key concepts to be presented will include:
  • Parts - identifying required parts, dealing with the complex issues in the supply chain impacting incoming supplies and outgoing products, best practices, key industry terminology, and more.
  • People - engaging state and local resources, internal and external hiring resources, best practices in workforce  development; workforce retention; diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI); certifications, and more.
  • Process - understanding the purchasing process, expectations of OEMs, intellectual property (IP), green/clean energy considerations, and more.
Space is limited, so we urge you to sign up early.
Guest speakers will include True Commerce Vice President and General Manager of Automotive Solutions David Eyes;
5 Star Global Recruitment Partners President Janet Rivera Jones; and Georgia Automotive Manufacturers Association President & CEO Rick Walker.
