Case Study

RTS Electronic X W.Kolb Fertigungstechnik

Initial situation

W. Kolb Fertigungstechnik GmbH has been a full-service electronics manufacturer in NRW for over 30 years. In an increasingly volatile procurement market - with allocation phases, price fluctuations and increasing delivery times - a reliable, independent partner for component supply was crucial.

 

Cooperation

For over 20 years, RTS Electronic has been supporting W. Kolb far beyond mere delivery: RTS employees regularly visit production, understand processes and requirements, work directly into the Kolb systems via EDI interface and are the central point of contact for bottlenecks, stockpiling strategies and market transparency.

 

Result

  • RSecurity of supply even in difficult allocation phases
  • RImproved transparency for availability and alternatives
  • RSustainably grown partnership at eye level
  • RTwo-time winner of the Best Partner Award - the first company ever to do so

"RTS Electronic is not just a supplier number.
RTS stands for partnership & humanity. No matter how difficult the path may seem, RTS has always followed it."
