Engagement with OEMs and Tier 1s

GTMA Engage with OEM’s & Tier 1’s from a wide variety of sectors to understand their supply chain issues and wherever possible, introduce and recommend members who can satisfy their requirement.

We have a proven model for successful engagement which preserves a level of confidentiality to the Manufacturing Client in early stages, resulting in formal introduction of aligned members. At this point the GTMA removes itself from the ongoing discussion of commercial engagement.

We engaged the GTMA to reach out to their manufacturing supply chain membership for support. The GTMA team took us through a structured process and very quickly identified member companies based on capability and capacity to deliver support for our projects. The process allowed us to retain control of the engagement and took us through to one-to-one meetings with the shortlisted companies. We have been delighted with the effectiveness and efficiency of this collaboration and will seek further opportunities to work with the GTMA and its membership.
