Garmin recently received the 2022 Operational Excellence Award from Airbus Helicopters at its annual Supplier Conference in Marignane, France. In addition to recognising excellence in on-time delivery and quality, the award highlights Garmin's outstanding performance amid a period of global supply chain challenges.

“It is an honour to be recognised by Airbus Helicopters for our commitment to serve it and our mutual customers. This prestigious award represents the strong collaboration between Airbus Helicopters and Garmin and is a testament to the hard work and dedication provided by the entire Garmin team. We are truly grateful to receive this award recognising the entire organisation's commitment to on-time delivery, quality and customer support,” says Carl Wolf, Garmin vice president of aviation sales and marketing.

Select Airbus Helicopters, including the H125, H130, H135 and H145, offer Garmin as standard avionics. Garmin's vertically integrated manufacturing model and agility in global operations allows products to be delivered at high rates while mitigating supply chain issues.
