The new MTU Materials Management Center, located in Friedrichshafen-Kluftern near Lake Constance replaces several external warehouses which were hitherto used for parts supply and will be implementing leaner logistics to make production more efficient. Tognum, the specialist in drive and propulsion systems and power generation, and its new partner Stute Logistics, the Kühne + Nagel subsidiary that is operating the warehouse, together invested around 50 million euros in the ultra-modern Materials Management Center.
