On January 30 of this year, he spoke with the company’s board of directors and decided to step down.

Since joining GMTA on July 1, 2005, Scott Knoy has contributed to the growth of the organization. Friedrich is confident that Knoy is prepared to handle his new responsibilities, adding, “Scott has proven his commitment, determination and knowledge of the automotive and gear industries. I’m sure he will continue the company’s expansion.”
