Visual materials | 2 Diesel Systems In modern diesel engines, Bosch diesel injection systems make a significant contribution to reducing fuel consumption as well as CO2 emissions. The CP4 common-rail pump, for example, builds up pressure especially fast, and so is suitable for economical start-stop operation. With solutions like this, diesel consumption can be further reduced by some 30 percent over the next few years. By the beginning of 2010, Bosch had manufactured three million CP4 pumps. p 2-DS-16448 p 2-DS-16449 p 2-DS-16450 At the Stuttgart-Feuerbach At the Bosch plant in Bamberg, Germany, a finished solenoid-valve location, Bosch associates test injector for the common-rail diesel injection system is inspected. the function and tightness of the CP4 pump, which is used in the common-rail system. Chassis Systems Bosch further expanded its international ABS manufacturing network in 2009: It was the first automotive supplier to open an ABS manufacturing facility in India – at its Chakan (Pune) location.

Visual materials | 3 Automotive Electronics In March 2010, Bosch opened a new wafer fab for eight-inch wafers in Reutlingen, Germany. In the future, the plant will manufacture semiconductors and micromechanical components. With a total volume of 600 million euros, the new wafer fab is the largest single investment in the history of the Bosch Group. When construction is completed (scheduled for 2016), as many as one million microchips will be made every day. By this time, approximately 800 people will be employed in the new factory. p 2-AE-16451 p 2-AE-16452 p 2-AE-16453 Under laboratory conditions in At Bosch in Reutlingen, At a measuring instrument, a our corporate sector Research Germany, an associate charges Bosch associate in Reutlingen, and Advance Engineering, we a cleansing station for silicon Germany, examines the layers are improving materials and wafers. deposited on the wafers. processes in order to make MEMS sensors for cars even smaller and more robust. This will provide the basis for control processes that further reduce fuel consumption. Automotive Aftermarket With its exchange program, Bosch is the world’s leading supplier of remanufactured parts. Remanufactured parts mean that auto parts dealers and vehicles repair garages can offer their customers an economical alternative – with the same guarantee as for new parts. Apart from economic aspects, remanufactured parts have the benefit of being eco-friendly. The exchange program, with its Bosch Exchange and HC-Parts brands, currently comprises some 9,000 parts from 27 product groups. p 2-AA-16454 p 2-AA-16455 p 2-AA-16486 Visual inspection of the An associate repairing an Bosch associates assemble slip-ring end-frames from alternator at the Bosch plant in remanufactured starters at the dismantled alternators at the Göttingen, Germany.

  • Using CSR As a Key Element for Achieving Competitive Advantage
    025-0181 Moral has no seasons: Using CSR as a key element for achieving competitive advantage. Marina Mattera Department of Economics and International Relations Universidad Europea de Madrid, C/Tajo, s/n. 28670-Villaviciosa de Odon-(Madrid) Spain POMS 23rd Annual Conference Chicago, Illinois, U.S.A. April 20 to April 23, 2011 Abstract: Firms' new challenges in the 21st century involve innovation and society's request for a more responsible business model. Based on bounded rationality conditions and the important role of externalities, it is analyzed through a case study whether corporate social responsibility strategies are essential for companies to achieve sustainable competitive advantages. Key words: Sustainable Development; Sustainable Management; Corporate Social Responsability; Open Innovation models. 1. Introduction Efforts towards generating sustainable growth and steady benefits have owned its accurate planning to the competitive advantage owned by the company. In several studies, it has been demonstrated that Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) can improve a firm’s performance by enhancing the prestige and perception from consumers’ perspective (competitive advantage). However, it has also been denoted that solid inter-agents relationships are enhanced when they have consolidated CSR actions between them. New models for conducting business emerge, and together with them new difficulties. Known as “open innovation” (OI) models, the aforementioned collaborations between organizations have also gained a purely international character. This study aims to analyze those new interactions and relationships between firms, which of them succeed and the role corporate social responsibility plays in such a context. Taking into account the complex level of the existing interrelationship between agents and countries where they operate, it becomes difficult to accurately depict the company’s culture, its values, and beliefs; as shown in Figure 1.

NEWS: GEX under pressure, DAXplus Family follows market In 2011, German entrepreneurial firms were under pressure. As compared to the DAX 30 index of German blue chip stocks which lost 15 percent from January 2011 to the beginning of December, the German Entrepreneurial Index (GEX®) lost 38 percent within the same time frame. The German Entrepreneurial Index (GEX®) represents entrepreneurial owner-managed firms in Germany which have not been listed for more than ten years. The index is computed by Deutsche Börse and was developed in cooperation with CEFS. The development of the DAXplus Family 30 index was similar to the DAX 30 blue chip index. The German family firm index lost about 18 percent of its value from January 2011 until the beginning of December. During 2011, co-movement of DAX and DAXplus family was observable to a great extent. The DAXplus Family consists of German Prime Standard firms with founding family ownership of at least 25% of voting rights or a minimum of 5% of voting rights and at least one family representative being part of the management or supervisory board.
