CalAmp earned the Caterpillar Supplier Excellence Certification for 2025, marking the second consecutive year the company received the recognition; the certification denotes suppliers that met Caterpillar’s standards for quality, on-time delivery, service and manufacturing discipline.

Caterpillar Radio Access Network (RAN) the Supplier Excellence Recognition program to identify suppliers measured on continuous improvement and disciplined manufacturing practices; the program assessed quality, delivery, service, capacity planning and compliance and placed CalAmp among the top tier of Caterpillar’s global supply base.

Over the past 12 months, Caterpillar measured CalAmp at 51 defects per million incoming parts, which equated to roughly 0.005 percent, or about one defect in every 20,000 parts shipped. CalAmp implemented an Automotive Quality Management System (QMS) aligned with IATF 16949 principles and conducted early planning and feasibility reviews, defined manufacturing and test processes, performed reliability and environmental testing, used multiple build stages before mass production, and enforced governance over design and component changes.

CalAmp applied those manufacturing practices across its global manufacturing footprint to support leading industrial and automotive OEMs and to supply devices for predictive maintenance, remote updates, mixed-fleet visibility and edge intelligence; the company supported manufacturers across construction, mining, agriculture and on-road equipment.

“Our customers build equipment that must perform in demanding environments. Earning Caterpillar’s Supplier Excellence Certification for a second consecutive year reflects our discipline across quality, delivery, and manufacturing. We’re proud of this recognition and committed to raising the bar,” said Chris Adams, CEO of CalAmp. “In order to support global OEMs, we knew we had to build a manufacturing framework that meets the same rigor as the automotive industry,” said Nathan Lowstuter, Chief Supply Chain Officer at CalAmp.

CalAmp said it remains focused on delivering telematics solutions at scale as OEMs advance their connected equipment strategies, introduce new platform architectures and expand subscription-based services.
