Bosch Supplier Logistics Manual, Release. 3.0
Robert Bosch GmbH, CP/LOG, 07.05.2007 Page 5(35)
Preamble
Competition in national and international markets has become significantly tougher in recent years.
The increased individuality of our customers places high requirements on our business, and as a
result also on the logistics functions, in terms of quality and flexibility.
The conventional role of handling commodity and merchandise flows has nowadays turned into a
comprehensive, customer-oriented management function.
The quality of logistics is becoming more and more decisive to the competitiveness of our business,
and is an increasingly important factor in our strategic success.
However, since the Bosch Group (in the following referred to as BOSCH for short) can only attain that
high quality level in conjunction with its suppliers, it needs reliable and competent business partners
who work toward the same customer-oriented goals.
This Supplier Logistics Manual is intended to enhance supply relationships between suppliers and
BOSCH Group and to minimise costs resulting from non-conformance.
The standards set out form the generally binding framework for all business units of BOSCH. They
can be supplemented by location-specific standards, in order to respond to the specific supply
relationships of particular plants or regions.
This document is structured as follows:
Text refers to general and standard regulations and processes.
Tables refer to region–specific standards from the point of view of the receiving Bosch plant.
Supplements may be required due to regional requirements or bilateral agreements between a
BOSCH plant and its suppliers. The local partner at the receiving BOSCH plant is able to provide you
with corresponding information.
Liability of SUPPLIER is governed by the agreed delivery contract.
