The high technical standards of Andritz’s products require manufacturing standards of the highest level., a systematic organization, well-defined business processes, and well-trained employees.
Andritz operates 50 manufacturing and service sites in Europe, North America, South America, and Asia. We employ approximately 4,800 people in manufacturing worldwide. All process-relevant and complex key components are manufactured and assembled at Andritz’s own workshops. Short lead times and on-time production require precise planning procedures as well as committed and flexible employees.
In order to ensure that the our global sourcing needs are be met at all times, the pool of sub-suppliers is continuously enlarged with new, qualified suppliers. While procurement is decentralized and performed by different project, manufacturing, and service locations, it is coordinated by a Global Procurement organization.
Andritz Quality Management plays a major role by implementing operating standards on products, processes, and personnel – and by providing feedback about the fulfillment of these standards. A two-fold approach of ensuring quality in the engineering phase, and quality assurance in manufacturing, has proven effective.
