Siemens Healthineers is investing around 13 million euros in a partially automated production supply center (PVZ) in Kemnath, Upper Palatinate. This will be the first time that Siemens Healthineers has automated intralogistics at the Kemnath site. The new PVZ is based on concept studies and planning results from IGZ in Falkenberg. As an SAP EWM general contractor, IGZ was able to score points with one of the leading manufacturers of medical technology in particular with its technology neutrality and end-to-end integration responsibility for the solution offered, so that IGZ was awarded the overall implementation. Once the solution goes live in 2022, the Falkenberg-based company will also take over all maintenance and support services for the SAP logistics IT, plant and control technology.
