Development and capacity building
Brembo promotes the
continuous improvement of its suppliers’ performance and their
involvement in product innovation processes, with a view to
strategic partnerships.
In order to ensure the
maximum safety and quality of its products, Brembo is committed to involving suppliers from the
early stages of the development of a project, adopting a
preventive and proactive approach, which allows any
critical issues identified to be anticipated and resolved.
The Group also promotes
opportunities for supplier development, through collaborative initiatives that encourage direct
discussion and the sharing of best practices.
Examples include the projects coordinated by the Brembo Supplier Quality area, which provide for the involvement of some suppliers in
tutoring activities in order to improve the quality performance. Supplier support activities continued in 2023 as well in the form of improvement plans and guided growth plans, in some cases with the involvement of specific external process
expertise.
These projects aim to support the development of Quality competencies in managing production processes, by analysing the processes themselves, sharing experiences and approaches with the aim of identifying the improvement solutions to be implemented.
