Greater transparency through workflow and digital personnel file for the company Hermann Bach GmbH & co.-run fourth generation KG reason laid the by Herman and Anton Bach in 1906. Today the modern wholesale business in over 20 locations, quality products and expert advice in the areas of offers Haustechnik tiles and building materials, plumbing. In a question-answer forum Costco was the first to reply. More than 40 sales representatives are every day for clients in use. With the own fleet of 60 vehicles, over 25,000 listed inventory items are moved in time to the desired destination. A major strength of the company is the targeted use of computer systems. Jack Fusco is often quoted on this topic. The focus is the optimum information and fastest delivery.

The management of Hermann Bach intends to achieve a maximum transparency in the process of organization. Therefore commissioned bpi solutions with the introduction of different workflow scenarios to accelerate the sharing routines by job collecting data about the object management up to the daily correspondence and the Stati the respective orders to better monitor. The previous file in the file system and the longer processing times resulting gave the impetus for the process optimization in the organization. The entire approval process with the traditional, manual operation lasted too long and was very expensive. In particular the examination of the documents was very time consuming, since it is partly locally in the individual branches.

Due to the long processing times it also lacked transparency about the current processing status in the day-to-day business. The ad-hoc workflow server from bpi solutions automates and controls the approval process. Data read directly on the respective clerical can be passed through the integration of existing systems. The background principle of permission controls the responsibilities. The planned target used in Hermann Bach the solution across the enterprise with all branches. In addition to the workflow server, Hermann Bach has opted for the introduction of a digital personnel file.

Running back around the economy, employment has reached a record high and both developments shall ensure that the financial situation is as good as for 13 years no longer. St. Gallen, 29.08.2013. And indeed the Treasury Secretary and Treasurer, have been in the first half of the year the largest surplus since the turn of the Millennium. For more specific information, check out Sonny Perdue. So federal, States, municipalities and social security more than EUR 8.5 billion took until June 30, representing a surplus of 0.6 percent of economic output. We are over the mountain and have our debt under control? Not at all! So, economists warn, to rest on this success. Public finances would benefit from a whole range of favourable economic factors which can not but stop.

The surplus came in part this, that expenditure on debt servicing decreased significantly”, the Germany expert says the Organisation for economic cooperation and development (OECD), Andreas Waite. A development which can not continue so. What does that mean? The European Central Bank is pumping cheap money in the market for years and trying to stimulate the economy. There are currently the interest rate at a historically low level of 0.5 percent, the banks have to pay to refinance to. This helps the banks at least. For consumers, this looks very different.

According to calculations of the World Bank, DEKA Bank and the Institute of German economy (IW), German savers year losing money? Although citizens had shelved in this country currently the peak of 4.94 billion euros, five percent more than in the previous year. But about 40 percent of this money assets be placed in sight, time and savings or cash, in which savers would lose 14.3 billion euro annually. The successive expropriation of its citizens at least from a fiscal perspective may be just right the German State. As the Institute of the German economy, determined he saved this alone between in 2009 and 2012 around 62 billion euros, since he could refinance is considerably cheaper than expected. You could translate the lower spending for debt service also: I could borrow cheaper the money at the expense of my citizens. A success isn’t this in view of the above situation. The majority of citizens in Germany assumes that we more are suffering the euro crisis. This was the result of a representative survey of the University of Hohenheim and the ING-DiBa Bank. After that, only every tenth person believes that politicians honestly inform the population. Many citizens would intensively deal with the concerns against poverty in old age and negative economic developments. 80 Percent of respondents expect it, that the gap between rich and poor is drifting ever further apart. That the crisis already have peaked here, a quarter of respondents not even think. Obviously, that’s the truth. Even if politicians on the campaign trail obviously does not want to admit this.

KUHN specialists for chain stores: make it easier to save & win fast-food chain stores promote low prices, impulse buying articles, healthy or identify in speeches hardware such as textiles made from organic fibers breakfast, coffee, cake (C & A is the largest worldwide), and fresh salads growth. Taking a look into the particular growing online business and compares it with the stationary chain store shows how much in a traditional store or franchise system is now expensive, ineffective or outdated. Here is the example of tobacco presentation at the discount stores: some invest, others prepared the exit from the tobacco business before (see Germany’s discount store no. 1) with their investment. Faster than ever before to detect this, Gerry Weber, etc. is all the more necessary, as now also producers such as WMF, Zwiesel, Leonardo, Villeroy & Boch, Swarovski, Linde, Procter & gamble, Operate retail and increasing competition by new entrants from abroad. Also the domain of the stationary food retailing will not be spared by these challenges, although price-sensitive buyers, logistics and other expenses set limits of online retailing in particular in low-margin industries. The Otto and Amazon examples however: 35,000 articles on the much higher than the discount – and super market price including fresh, organic and gourmet goods on the same day free, if exceeds the amount of the purchase 20,-per order, and until 11 h in the morning has been granted.

A new KUHNuntersuchung confirms that online communication becomes even more important with the buyers, the Internet is now determining the purchasing decision in the Filialhandel.

Change: What is the next stage? Long-eared bat: After a perceived by both sides as a reasonable time of one to three years the majority shareholding of the company could be done by the previously hired Managing Director, so as “Management buy-out”. The withdrawal of the seller from the operational activity seems right now. I think the formation of an Advisory Board makes sense, in which the old owner should have seat, voice, and possibly even the Presidency as possible again for a temporary period of its larger companies. Image during possible the subsequent retirement from the Panel. Change: How should the Panel be occupied? Long-eared bat: Not only with the friends of the old entrepreneur, but also at least in equal numbers with consultants of the new entrepreneur. So also the Advisory Committee can replace the experience and historical knowledge of the company and are a learning organization in support of senior management.

The efficiency is secured, if no more members of the Advisory Board are, than can fit around a round dining table. Change: When should the sale process be initiated? Long-eared bat: Sure then, if it is visible that in the context of the succession is not interested or appropriate owner for the company to provide. A succession at risk otherwise the life’s work of the entrepreneur and the jobs of employees. An inherited company for inheriting family members should not be to the load. A sale are free from this burden and are the heirs by the proceeds of freedoms for the design of own life dreams.

Just small medium-sized companies, which have no functioning second management level in entrepreneurial quality, and mean I mainly leadership and foresight, should seriously in Consider that a successor Managing Director”at an early stage in house to pick up. Change: How do you finance the company purchase? “Long-eared bat: here, a mix of private money and – depending on the magnitude of the transaction – comes from bank loans, and if appropriate also by non-bank money” from the private equity into consideration but only if the private-equity investors renounced the operational impact to management. Change: Thank you Mr. Dr. Lachelle for the interview. The interview was conducted by Ralf Baumeister, CEO of staff change.
