BOSCH REXROTH IS FOCUSING ON GLOBAL PARTNERSHIP AND LOCAL COLLABORATION

At Bosch Rexroth, we keep thinking globally and act locally. This idea is one of the major pillars of our success. We provide our clients with complete portfolio of solutions developed on the basis of our experience gained all over the world. This approach allows us to offer personalized solutions that reflect requirements of our local customers – whether from Europe or America, or from one of the emerging markets: Brazil, China or India.

EXPERIENCE GAINED LOCALLY FOR LOCALLY-ADJUSTED SOLUTIONS

Our clients face different challenges, which involves the necessity to deliver personalized solutions. In our global sales network, we register individual clients' needs and share them with regional design centers to prepare offers adjusted to local and branch conditions, based on modular product platforms.

Bosch Rexroth is often involved in large-scale projects, e.g.:

• designing a groundbreaking ship oil rig lifting system,
• cooperation in the construction of the La Yesca dam in Mexico,
• repair of the Panama Canal ship locks.

We often participate in all stages of large undertakings, as a system partner or general contractor – from the preliminary concept, through detailed simulation, to implementation and commissioning. The benefits for our clients include access to extensive know-how and experience, and also proven project management skills.

THE SOLUTION MUST BE PERFECT: INNOVATIONS MADE BY BOSCH REXROTH

The term "innovation" is often used in business world, but it is defined in many different ways.

In Europe and America, it is most often associated with a technology and its continuous improvement. However, for our Chinese partners innovations consist in solving a given problem using an advanced technology, consuming as little resources as possible and by using a structure restricted to its predefined function. In other Asian regions and South America, users' expectations connected with the word "innovation" are quite different. Understanding local needs and the ability to create personalized solutions in cooperation with local research teams, is the prerequisite to fulfill individual expectations towards innovation in a globalized society.

Bosch Rexroth's specialists from all countries closely cooperate to deliver innovative solutions that set world standards and convince our local clients. All of these activities are not only supported financially, but also through the creativity of thousands of engineers. The percentage share of our budget expenses on research and development has been well over the industry average for many years.

On this grounds, we prepare systematic short and long-term prognoses concerning the expectations towards the current trends. Drawing from continuous development based on proven technologies, we are able to meet them. We also work on improvement of our previous solutions and search for new methods. For us, innovation is always connected with benefits in many areas for machine manufacturers and users. This means, for example, that a given solution allows to reduce carbon dioxide emission, increasing productivity at the same time.
