Kautex Maschinenbau appoints Global IT head

As Head of Global IT, the IT specialist Robert Kubotsch is taking on overall responsibility for information technology at Kautex Maschinenbau.  In this role Mr. Kubotsch will harmonise the existing IT systems and optimise them for cooperation between the global Kautex team, customers and partners. Isolated solutions which have been used to date will be replaced with a uniform IT structure at all locations, and the availability of IT services and infrastructure at crucial points will be improved.

Mr. Kubotsch previously worked for an international plant and machinery manufacturer where he was responsible for the maintenance and further development of IT at various locations. 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.

Mr. Robert Kubotsch 

Kautex Maschinenbau 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, as well as placing even greater emphasis on customer focus in all business areas. The production solutions are becoming more intelligent, modular, and flexible, and the aim is primarily to generate added value for customers. 

These changes are accompanied by increasing digitalisation in communication, production, and service. Data management, communication systems and comprehensive remote services place high demands in terms of the efficiency, standardisation and global availability of IT. Kautex announced enhanced investment in this area some time ago. Mr. Kubotsch and his team will now put the philosophy into action.
