Moulding Expo aiming to build bridges between buyers and suppliers
With the German Association for Materials Management, Purchasing and Logistics (BME) and its BME Forum entitled "Purchasing of tools", Moulding Expo has found the perfect partner to achieve this goal. On 6 and 7 May 2015, the BME will stage a 2-day seminar concurrently with the trade fair in Stuttgart. This seminar is expected to attract more than 100 purchasing experts and managers who want to continue their training. Representatives from the areas of tool-dependent parts, tool purchasing, strategic purchasing, technical purchasing and commodity management tooling will be present in Stuttgart.
"The event will be highly beneficial to the participants," said Professor Robert Fieten, the initiator of the Forum. "For example, the international procurement markets for tools, purchasing strategies or supplier selection will be examined during technical talks and discussions. However, the discussions will also focus on topics such as solid cost accounting and the conclusion of watertight contracts in order to ensure, for example, title to supplied tools. The BME has already successfully staged this Forum for six years. Buyers, i.e. our primary target group, tell me that there is nothing comparable. Some buyers therefore repeatedly attend the Forum. If that isn't a complement!, said Professor Fieten, who has taken over responsibility for technical management of the Forum. Fieten was a member of the Executive Committee of the BME for many years and is responsible for the contents of the Association's major congresses in his capacity as their Director and Chairman.
