Competence

Consulting and
services for
your company

Our consulting is based on many years of international experience in development, product management, and production – with a particular focus on powertrain, chassis, and load-bearing structures.

We support the development and optimization of products, portfolios, and processes. In doing so, we combine technical expertise with commercial thinking and consistent implementation.

Our focus is on efficient processes and competitive products – in terms of functionality, reliability, cost, and weight.

Product Management

Product
Management

We support the strategic development of products, platforms, and portfolios – from business development to sustainable market positioning.

Through consistent product and platform management, we create portfolio transparency, reduce complexity, and unlock synergies across products, markets, and locations.

We support the development of product and technology strategies, make-or-buy decisions, and the evaluation of new business areas and market opportunities. Technical requirements, customer value, cost, and commercial viability are considered together.

The goal is competitive products and portfolios with a clear strategic and commercial perspective.

Project
Management

Project Management
We lead demanding product and change projects as well as task forces – from target definition through sustainable implementation.

Successful projects require clear objectives, transparent responsibilities, and consistent management of timing, cost, quality, and results.

We structure complex challenges, create transparency on progress and risks, and support teams in preparing decisions and implementing measures effectively.

Depending on the task, we combine classical project management with agile approaches and established problem-solving and quality methods such as 8D and Six Sigma.

Transformation & Change Management

Transformation &
Change Management

We support companies in preparing technical and organizational changes in a structured way and implementing them effectively.

Successful change requires more than a defined process. Clear objectives and responsibilities are essential, as is effective interaction between development, production, purchasing, quality, and other functions involved.

We analyze existing structures and processes, identify areas for action, and develop an appropriate approach together with the people involved.

The spectrum ranges from technical changes to products and processes to complex transformation tasks involving organizations, product portfolios, and industrial structures.

Reliability
Management

Reliability Management
We support the early and systematic integration of reliability and product safety into product development.

Reliability does not begin with testing. Requirements, loads, and potential failure mechanisms need to be understood and considered from the early stages of development.

We support reliability analyses and predictions as well as the development of efficient validation and test strategies. Analytical methods, field data, and test results are combined to provide a robust assessment.

The goal is a transparent demonstration of reliability while optimizing test effort and shortening development cycles.
