The Challenges

Before the collaboration with Bossard, BAADER was facing various challenges, including:

  • Intensive cleaning processes → increased corrosion risks
  • Vibrations in high‑speed rotating machines
  • A large, non‑standardized assortment
  • Frequent stock‑outs due to manual and reactive inventory management

The Solutions

After careful consideration, we suggested the following changes:

  • Smart inventory management using SmartBins/SmartLabels
  • Standardization to stainless steel A2/A4
  • Configuration of safety stock levels
  • Bi‑monthly replenishment aligned with production planning
  • Coating solutions to prevent galling
