Siemens factory in Switzerland wins award for production and supply chain resilience
Siemens factory in Zug, Switzerland
“The Siemens plant in Zug is an excellent example of continuously
striving for improvement and pursuing clear objectives with a strong focus on
digitalization,” said Daniel Stengel, Director at Kearney.
The factory in Zug has continued
to ensure product deliveries to customers, even under current challenging
market conditions. This is thanks to preventive measures such as a “risk radar”
for early identification of global risks in the supply chain, a high level of
data transparency across the entire value chain, and seamless collaboration
with purchasing, logistics, development, and sales departments.
Resource efficiency and the ongoing reduction of carbon emissions are increasingly
prioritized in manufacturing. Both underline the plant’s clear focus on
sustainability. Another quality hallmark of the plant is cost management built
on lean manufacturing, automation and digitalization. Finally, Siemens’ culture
of innovation, the continuous optimization of processes and operations, and the
ongoing training of employees all contribute to the high quality and
adaptability of production operations at the Zug factory.
“I’m proud of our team at the
Zug plant. Their hard work and dedication to continuous improvement, also
during challenging times, has also been recognized externally with this well-deserved
award,” said Henning Sandfort, CEO of Building Products at Siemens Smart
Infrastructure, and the executive responsible for the plant. “It honors the
dedicated work, expertise, and tireless motivation of the entire team over many
years.”
The Siemens plant in Zug employs around 350 people who work in shifts to
manufacture advanced products for building technology, primarily fire detectors
as well as heating, ventilation and air conditioning equipment for building
automation. The products, which serve the global market, are essential components for building
management and fire protection solutions in smart buildings.
The award ceremony will take place in March 2023 at the Factory of the
Year industry convention in Munich.
