Last News in 2007

Since November 1st, 2007 Mrs Nadine Winkelmann joins the team around D&E. She will replace Mrs Ingrid Pfeiffer who will retire next year.

This year's suppliers rating by Deutsche Bahn AG was again passed on highest level Q1. We are and stay Q1 frame contract partner of DB AG.

Also passed with no deviations was the annual surveillance audit of LGA Intercert, which took place in December.

A specific challenge in this year was the change to SAP for Draka Comteq Berlin. From mid 2008 on all Draka Comteq sales offices will then be using SAP, most of them already switched to it. So did Berlin in December 2007. Thanks to the commitment of all collegues the change to SAP happened very well and without bigger issues.
