Both the demand for high-quality and innovative products and our global solutions business require procurement that is just as dynamic and global as the market environment where we operate.

Procurement is incorporated into the entire value creation chain at SEW‑EURODRIVE. Besides working very closely with virtually every department – from development and production to quality management and logistics – we also consistently bring on board our buyers in the global subsidiaries.

Closely integrated into our global company

This is how we ensure the right material is always available at the right time for our production operations:

  • By maintaining constant dialog with our suppliers
  • By understanding our customers' needs
  • By working with specialist associations and renowned universities

In this way, we can keep our promise to our customers and deliver on time within tight deadlines.

Maintaining high quality and sustainability standards in the supply chain is more than just a statement for us. At SEW-EURODRIVE, this claim is firmly anchored as a fundamental factor in the entire value creation chain.
