SOLUTIONS FOR YOUR CHALLENGES

E2E optimization of the supply chain

Up to now, supply chains in the industry have been optimized primarily with regard to cost aspects. In the future, however, criteria such as flexibility, reliability and sustainability will be the focus of strategic realignment. EFESO supports companies in the SHK industry with a comprehensive service portfolio. This ranges from the structural reorganization of procurement and distribution systems and the realignment of organization and processes to the development and implementation of digitization concepts and the establishment of corresponding IT architectures.

Accelerated time-to-market and flexible production

To be able to meet the requirements for innovation, quality, prices and delivery reliability in this fast-growing market, companies need a high-performance development and production environment. EFESO experts have the know-how to rethink value chains and build integrated and highly automated capacities in a short time. Thus, we ensure an efficient development and industrialization of innovations, an accelerated time-to-market and a flexible scaling of your production.

Holistic cost reduction and efficiency increase

Compensating for disrupted supply chains, complying with increasing regulatory requirements, increasingly re-regionalizing production at locations with higher labor costs, and competing for skilled labor are all increasing financial pressures in the industry. With extensive expertise in digitalization, automation and smart factory, EFESO delivers effective solutions to accelerate processes, reduce costs and future-proof companies.

Smart products for smart systems

Developments in the field of smart homes and the Internet of Things (IoT) are increasing the requirements and customer expectations of HVAC products and are placing particular demands on the industry. Long product life cycles and an ever deeper integration of products into intelligent systems are forcing manufacturers to anticipate future customer needs even more strongly and to implement them within the framework of smart products. In this complex environment, EFESO supports you in the consolidation and further development of an integrated, future-proof product and service portfolio.

Implementing sustainability holistically

Three key questions are currently occupying the industry: What does sustainability mean for my company? What measures are strategically required? How can sustainability be efficiently orchestrated and anchored in the organization? Customers expect a high degree of transparency regarding the environmental balance, especially from SHK companies whose products conserve resources. EFESO supports them in designing, implementing and monitoring the success of effective sustainability management.

I really appreciate their ability to gap the bridge from creating an idea to realization. EFESO empowered our project with ideas and structural approach to get it done very fast without leaving our team members alone.«
