“ THE TRUTH IS , IMPROVEMENT HAS NO END AND NEITHER DOES EFFICIENCY . IN ORDER TO CONTINUE TO DELIVER ON THIS , WE ARE INVOLVING ALL THE BUSINESS FUNCTIONS TO ACCELERATE THE EFFICIENCY GENERATION ”

— Hervé Ghesquières , Global Head of Industrial Engineering at Prometeon Tyre Group
As Prometeon continues this journey of efficient transformation , Ghesquières recognises that the successes he and his teams have achieved so far would not have been possible without key partnerships . He sees these partnerships as a little different from traditional client-supplier relationships ; rather , they are real partnerships that develop solutions together and share ideas in order to define a common solution to reach the goals .
Two key partners that have really contributed to Prometeon ’ s success are EFESO Consulting and virtual shop floor management company Staufen Italia . “ EFESO has been working with us since the beginning of our adventure , supporting us in defining the roadmap and guidelines to design our manufacturing transformation roadmap ,” he says . “ They clearly understood our business needs and helped defining a vision , set priorities and support us in structuring a high-performance organisation .
