“The early adopters of FACTON enterprise costing in North America are already enjoying great success with the platform, and we believe the economic pressures facing manufacturers in the region make our solution highly desirable for these companies,” said Ruediger Stern, FACTON President North America. “Global manufacturing leaders including Ford Motor Company, TI Automotive, Henniges Automotive, Brose, DURA Automotive and Harman already use FACTON technology to standardize cost management across the enterprise - and all have a local presence in metro Detroit. Our expanded presence in southeastern Michigan is a recognition of the role this region plays in the global manufacturing marketing, and it is essential that FACTON is an active and vocal participant in this global hub of manufacturing expertise.”
FACTON’s US headquarters was selected specifically for its location in the heart of US manufacturing, with an office layout that promotes the company culture of open collaboration - which ultimately supports rapid development / rapid delivery of FACTON solutions to North American customers.
