facilities for the disabled at its three sites in Ludwigsburg and

The company has now opted in favour of the IBS AG quality management
solution for the further improvement of its product quality. "Of
course, we have highly specific requirements of a quality management
solution. Bearing our employees in mind, not only the machines and
tools need to be particularly safe and easy to use, but also the
software solution.", says Dietrich Vonhoff, Managing Director of
Theo-Lorch-Werkstaetten. "The IBS solution, which we found the most
suitable, impressed us with its range of associated benefits. The
support provided by the IBS solution will enable us to further
improve our quality and certification processes and, in particular,
reduce our defect costs with greater process reliability in data
acquisition. Employees with disabilities are just as ambitious,
concentrated and motivated and those without. Theo-Lorch-Werkstaetten
provides disabled employees with the general framework to enable them
to fulfil their duties.", adds Dietrich Vonhoff.

"Together with our customer we have succeeded in developing a quality
management solution that is specially tailored to meet the specific
requirements of Theo-Lorch-Werkstaetten and those with disabilities.
We aim to make this software solution accessible to further workshops
and companies employing those with disabilities. In addition to our
economic motivation, we are also contributing to offering those with
disabilities a meaningful task", says Volker Schwickert, Executive
Vice President and Head of Sales and Marketing at IBS AG.
