Kautex Maschinenbau appoints a new head of Global IT
Robert Kubotsch
Kubotsch will optimise the existing IT systems for co-operation between the global Kautex team, customers and partners. His experience of various projects across different sectors has given him a keen understanding of the business processes involved in running a machinery manufacturing enterprise, and its ever-expanding IT requirements.
Kautex has been involved in a process of strategic realignment and restructuring for over two years. The company is bringing about harmonised processes and standards in line with the ‘BeOne’ motto.
These changes are accompanied by increasing digitalisation in communication, production, and service. Kautex announced enhanced investment in this area some time ago, and Kubotsch and his team will now put the philosophy into action.
CEO Thomas Hartkämper said: “We are delighted to be able to welcome an experienced IT specialist for our global Kautex team in Robert Kubotsch. He is very process oriented and he has demonstrated what may be possible in the future. The huge investment in IT is an additional element for sustainable implementation of our new vision – BeOne Global Kautex Team.
Kubotsch added: “IT is the backbone for changes at Kautex. It’s not just a matter of providing optimal support for processes, it’s also about anticipating developments. Setting the right course is an extremely challenging task. I am looking forward to playing an active role in shaping the transition at Kautex while establishing a high degree of service quality throughout the group.”
