When it comes to Capital Expenditures – CAPEX, there is often a lack of overview: Just as ships and airplanes are said to have disappeared in the Bermuda Triangle, companies lose effort, efficiencies and, not least, lots of capital under seemingly mysterious circumstances. Why is this happening, and what can you do about it? In our cover story, we take a closer look.
Risks arise during major investments, but also in ongoing business. It is important to identify risks in good time and define countermeasures. In our annual risk management study, we look at how companies deal with risks – and we’ve summarized for you the concerns that are currently driving decision-makers. If service providers do not do what the customer expects of them, this may be due to home-made problems, we found out in an expert survey. You can find out what you need to find suitable service partners and manage them optimally in our article on contractor management. It’s not just the customer magazine that’s evolving – we’re also expanding our consulting services: By expanding our management team and adding new locations, we are moving closer to our customers in Scandinavia and the UK. Read more about the new Inverto heads and locations in the company news.
