Growth engine purchasing

As with car manufacturers, requirements have increased significantly with lower capacities and quantities. Specific customer solutions often conflict with available standard solutions. This makes permanent coordination between technology, sales and production necessary. In turn, the company that is most likely to master the competition is the one that has the most control over the screws in terms of effectiveness, flexibility, costs and deadlines. Many of the main components are from major suppliers (electrics, hydraulics, basic chassis). During a Kloepfel project, our special vehicle team works with you to uncover undiscovered treasures in terms of returns by helping you to use materials more efficiently, standardize products even in small series, find innovative suppliers for lightweight construction, for example, and hold workshops with existing suppliers to identify potential savings that can be achieved together.
