In many warehouses, the questions pile up. Where do we put the increased stock? How can we find everything (quickly)? Where do we find employees? How do we control costs? Can't the process be a bit more manageable? What is an appropriate management system? Are there practical and affordable solutions to our challenges?

The future is not getting any more certain. Who would have ever thought that companies would go bust because they could not pay their energy bills? At the very least, a company that wants to increase its industrial livelihood in this day and age needs to embark on a strategic energy policy.

Unplanned production line downtime is so costly that companies want to avoid it at all costs. For example, by having a spare part available for all parts. However, this is also costly and rarely efficient. It is therefore important to make a measured spare parts selection.

What exactly is effective energy management? And how do you implement it? Follow our new webinar Score with your Energy Team, Thursday February 29 (starting at 2 p.m.).
