Heidelberg Printing Machinery Maintains Close Supplier Relationships
Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (HDM) maintains close strategic partnerships with key suppliers, holding supplier meetings at least twice a year. These gatherings facilitate ongoing dialogue on company developments, review contractual targets, and provide comprehensive assessments of the suppliers.
Key topics discussed include continuous financial improvement, achieving zero defect rates in product and process quality, supplier integration, synchronous production, innovation, and environmental sustainability.
Baumer achieved an outstanding result for the sixth consecutive year, a remarkable feat recognized by Markus Vetter, Head of Electronics Purchasing at HDM. He commented, “While some suppliers reach preferred status occasionally, achieving it consistently for six years is extremely rare.” In his praise for Baumer’s contributions as a key supplier, he noted that success requires both alignment with HDM and customer-centric orientation.
This highlights the significance of the Baumer Group’s corporate culture. The company not only emphasizes its three core values—Partnership, Pioneering, and Precision—but also demonstrates them through collaboration with customers. Harmonizing these principles creates enduring client relationships.
