Our customer, a world-leading manufacturer of special machine technologies, had been sourcing geared motors for the dosing of chemical substances from a single development partner for decades. Steady price increases could not be resisted due to a strong dependence on a monopolistic supplier with complete product know-how.
The goal was to reduce this dependency, establish a second source, and improve the cost structure. Through our work, we were able to achieve savings of over EUR 657,000 or 44% for 12 months and successfully qualify a second supplier.
