Interview (EN-FR-DE) with Dominique Girardin, CEO at Yerly Mécanique

Interview (EN-FR-DE) with Patrick Haegeli, deputy general manager at Willemin-Macodel
How have you reacted to the new period, marked by the pandemic, that has started in 2020 ? As we have a very international customer base and our machining solutions require training at our site as well as commissioning at customer sites, border closures and travel restrictions blocked our activities for a few weeks. We were forced to massively restrict activity between mid-March and mid-April, and since then we have been managing our operations taking into account the still highly impacting (…)

This makes it possible to (…)

Interview (EN-FR-DE) with Roland Gutknecht, CEO at Suvema
How have you reacted to the new period, marked by the pandemic, that has started in 2020 ? The health of our employees, customers and partners is, and remains, our main concern. As soon as the first symptoms of this new virus appeared, we implemented our existing pandemic plan, wearing masks, disinfection consoles, separate teams, temperature taking, limited access to the company and teleworking.

Interview (EN-FR-DE) with Karl Huber, CEO at Star Micronics
How have you reacted to the new period, marked by the pandemic, that has started in 2020 ? Like all other companies, we too faced the challenge of protecting the health of our employees during the pandemic while maintaining the quality of our services and keeping contact with our customers and suppliers within the limits imposed by the situation.

Interview (EN-FR-DE) with Frédéric Springmann, CEO at Springmann
How have you reacted to the new period, marked by the pandemic, that has started in 2020 ? We have tried to optimise our way of working to compensate for the reduced capacity we have faced, both at home and at our customers’ sites. While we wait for better times, we continue to arch one’s back. Which innovation(s) or product(s) have you developed in 2020 and would like to highlight ? We are looking for, and in part have already found, products that are complementary to our current sales (…)

Interview (EN-FR-DE) with Stefan Eichler, CEO at Rimann
How have you reacted to the new period, marked by the pandemic, that has started in 2020 ? We introduced short-time working like many other companies and received help from the government. We also used this period to deal with tasks that we had neglected for some time, such as price lists and a new strategy for the future. An intensification of our presence in markets that have been little explored to date, such as German-speaking Switzerland and Portugal, has been undertaken. Which (…)
