Event Coverage: Industry-Forum 2013 Hosted by CADENAS PARTsolutions

The International CADENAS Industry-Forum 2013 and user group event just wrapped up in Augsburg, Germany. The event was a great success for the CADENAS PARTsolutions family to gather, share information, ideas and have some fun.

Industry-Forum Overview:

The event is a gathering of users to participate in workshops and network, learning more about how their peers utilize Strategic Parts Management as well as Electronic Product Catalogs.

Many visitors took the opportunity learn best practice marketing strategies from industry leading component manufacturers who demonstrate how they drive sales with their eCATALOGsolutions. There is hidden marketing potential in your Electronic Product Catalog, waiting to be unlocked.

Enterprise users focused their attention on organizational best practices regarding Strategic Parts Management. These companies have achieved lasting reduction of costs by optimizing cooperation of purchasing and engineering through our process called PURCHINEERING. Manufacturers lower costs and improve efficiency by reducing multiplicity and optimizing classification of master parts.

But, that's just the tip of the schnitzel! Check out these fun pics from the event!
