L&W Supply Honored with 2014 “Partners of Choice” Award
USG Corporation and its distribution subsidiary, L&W Supply Corporation, accepted David Weekley Homes coveted “Partners of Choice” Award at their recent national account meeting. This is the eighth straight year that the L&W Supply branches in Florida have been honored with the award and recognized as a top supplier, and the fourth year for L&W Supply/Building Specialties branches in Texas.
As the nation’s largest privately held residential home builder, David Weekley Homes achieves the highest levels of homeowner satisfaction through its world-class partnerships. In 2004, the home builder implemented its interactive supplier evaluation system, which is used by suppliers and the homebuilder to achieve world-class status in managing the flow of goods and services through the supply chain. In this process, more than 800 of David Weekley Homes’ team members deliver quarterly ratings to their suppliers based on performance in a number of areas, two key areas being quality and service. The evaluations and ratings, paired with one-on-one discussions, formalized feedback instruments, coaching sessions, and action plans, exhibit a true partnership between David Weekley Homes and their national trading partners.
