Dart Controls was presented with a 2015 Partners in Performance Award as part of Grainger’s annual supplier recognition event in Chicago March 14, 2016. Grainger, the leading broad line supplier of maintenance, repair and operating (MRO) products serving businesses and institutions, presents the yearly award to a select group of suppliers for outstanding performance throughout the year.

Through this award, suppliers are recognized for excellence in several categories, including responsiveness, information integrity, on-time shipping, management commitment and order fulfillment.  Each Grainger supplier receives ratings throughout the year for its respective performance in each of these categories. Out of Grainger’s more than 3,500 active suppliers, less than 1 percent are chosen to receive these annual awards.

“To have received this award for the third time in the last five years is a real honor.  The dedication of our associates to the consistent quality of the product we supply to all our customers is the real reason we have been given this award,” explained Mike Lunsford, President of Dart Controls.

“Grainger is proud to recognize Dart Controls for its outstanding supplier performance,” said Fred Costello, Grainger Vice President, Global Product Management. “Our customers expect quality products consistently delivered to the right place at the right time. This is not possible without the commitment, dedication and outstanding service of our Partners in Performance suppliers.”
