Moog was one of eight companies to receive a supplier of the year designation in this, the second year for the awards program. Moog CEO Bob Brady received the award on behalf of the company on June 27 at a suppliers' awards luncheon sponsored by Northrop Grumman in Manhattan Beach, Calif.

To be considered for a supplier of the year award, a company must demonstrate consistent superior performance in delivering products and services to Northrop Grumman.
