We have also carefully selected a network of partner companies in all regions of the world.We’re surrounded by products fastened by things you can see: screws, nuts and bolts. But, we at Bossard help customers boost their productivity by surfacing the hidden potential of fastening. How do we get this done? It’s simple. We analyze things like sourcing, design, engineering, logistics, handling, ordering, quality inspection stocking, or even assembly. So, at the end, productivity could mean that it takes our customers less production time so they can save money and go lean. Or, it could mean engineering smart fastening solutions with less parts so our customers can dramatically reduce their inventory. Or, it could mean mapping value streams so our customers can speed things up and beat their competitors. So, no matter if you’re a CEO, a CFO, an engineer, a product or a purchasing manager, today you have a choice. To either flat line your business by just looking at screws, nuts and bolts. Or, to leapfrog your competition by looking at the bigger picture of what we call Proven Productivity. We’ve been around since 1831. So if you’d like to choose the path of Proven Productivity, we’d love to meet you and help you engineer your way to success.
