Digitalization, sustainability and qualification
Strategic partnership between BLG Logistics and DEKRA
Matthias Magnor, Chief Operating Officer (COO) and member of the Board of Management at BLG Logistics, and DEKRA Germany CEO Guido Kutschera have agreed a strategic partnership between their two companies. Together, the partners will tackle strategic issues in the future and combine their strengths in the areas of digitalization, sustainability and qualification. The partnership will create operational advantages and sales synergies for both companies.
BLG Logistics and the DEKRA companies operate in a constantly changing market environment and want to work together to address developments in the areas of lifecycle management and remarketing, digitalization, process optimization, quality improvements, zero emissions and employee training - keyword: shortage of skilled workers.
Vehicle logistics - from production to delivery to the destination at the dealer or customer - requires maximum reliability, safety and an adequate network. BLG COO Matthias Magnor sees great potential for the collaboration: "Through the strategic partnership with the specialists from DEKRA, we offer our customers in the automotive sector further added value: comprehensive solutions and services with unique selling points from a single source." With over 4 million vehicles transported each year, BLG Logistics is the leading automotive logistics provider in Europe.
Guido Kutschera, Chairman of the Management Board of DEKRA Automobil GmbH and responsible for the Group's business in Germany, is also convinced by the partnership: "By bundling and jointly offering services from DEKRA and BLG, we are responding to specific requirements from the market. More and more customers need packages of expert services and logistics services. BLG Logistics is the ideal partner for us to be able to offer precisely such service packages." DEKRA Automobil is the most important and largest division within the DEKRA Group. However, other DEKRA companies such as DEKRA Akademie, DEKRA Automotive Solutions Germany and DEKRA Event & Logistic Services are also involved in the partnership.
