Manufacturing Excellence Report 2014 – Erkenntnisse und Ergebnisse

The MX Report 2014 contains insights of the anniversary year of Manufacturing Excellence (MX) Netzwerk and presents and reflects experiences since its foundation ten years ago. The MX Netzwerk offers a benchmarking platform to learn methods and processes, to adapt best practices and to discuss challenges in the production environment. The MX Report 2014 focusses on results of MX Award 2014. During this benchmark competition a jury awards best companies based on a self-assessment and an on-site visit by experts with regards to several categories. Excellent concepts are presented in the MX Report and each category is qualitatively evaluated across all companies. The emphasis of the academic elaboration is on “German Mittelstand” whilst practical descriptions look on the development of the German economy over the last ten years.
