Delphi Automotive Systems Named to the 'Information Week 500'
      Annual Ranking Recognizes Innovative Use of Information Technology

    TROY, Mich., Sept. 12 Delphi Automotive Systems
has been named to the "Information Week 500," a listing of the
most innovative users of information technology (IT).  The roster is published
annually by Information Week magazine, a premier technology publication, and
appears in the magazine's September 11 edition.  Delphi is among just 17
companies named to the Information Week 500 from the automotive industry.
    In recognizing Delphi among the most innovative IT users, Information Week
cited Delphi's emphasis on supply-chain optimization, as well as its efforts
to create an IT infrastructure that will support global e-business,
engineering and production initiatives.  The publication also quotes industry
experts who endorse Delphi's supply-chain focus as a means for cutting costs
and boosting profits.
    In addition to automotive firms, the Information Week 500 profiles
companies from 23 other industries such as health care, financial services and
telecommunications.
    "We are delighted to be recognized as part of the IT vanguard with
companies like 3Com, Cisco Systems and Compaq," said Peter Janak, Delphi Vice
President and Chief Information Officer.  "Being chosen for the Information
Week 500 validates our approach to IT, and spotlights the important role IT
plays in Delphi's business strategy.  It showcases our role as a technology
company -- both in terms of the automotive components and systems we produce,
and in the use of enabling IT to create and manufacture those products."
