Ford Chief Operating Officer Nick Scheele is urging employees to treat suppliers better for the sake of the automaker's long-term success.
"If we are not our suppliers' customer of choice," Scheele said in an e-mail to company employees last month, "they will dedicate their best people, invest their best resources, and offer the newest technology and innovation to our competitors - putting Ford at a competitive disadvantage." A copy of the e-mail message was obtained by Automotive News Europe.
