additional benefits that we now bring to the table . In the past , we had many suppliers that were a good fit for the huge organization that is Bosch . Now , we develop suppliers that are perfect for SEG and our new size and speed . Very often that is a supplier we have worked with for many years , and in some cases it ’ s a new organisation ,” she says . One of the new companies working with SEG is CHG Meridian , an IT services and leasing company from Weingarten , Germany . “ Since the carve-out , we ’ ve had a very good relationship with CHG using their IT solutions ,” Bomberg says . “ Our next project will be to streamline our forklift fleet . CHG will definitely help us to align and organise it better .”
Bomberg notes that SEG ’ s more agile business profile is conducive to both increased levels of communication and adaptability . “ Instead of the complex organization of Bosch , we now have a dedicated sourcing team that serves only SEG . With increased focus , process knowledge and more direct communication , intercultural and inter-disciplinary teamwork has become much easier . This includes regular visits of the global lead buyers to the local buyers around
