Automotive & E-Mobility

We support manufacturers of battery cells, modules and battery systems with sourcing of adjacent components and professional supplier management. Direct sourcing of battery cells is explicitly out of scope. Our focus is on mechanical, electrical and system-related components around the battery system, where cost, scalability and industrialization are critical.

Our experience covers prismatic and pouch systems as well as different chemistries such as NMC and LFP. Typical areas include battery and module housings, trays and structural parts, electrical interconnects, thermal components and BMS-related hardware. In addition, we support supplier setup, qualification, audits, industrialization and ramp-up, including on-site supplier management in the relevant sourcing markets and China+1 approaches.

In the dynamic automotive industry, our sourcing expertise caters to both Tier 1 and Tier 2 needs. We offer sourcing and procurement for automotive suppliers and startups, mainly with focus on fine precision, casted and stamped metal parts and parts for fuel tank systems, components for transmission systems as well as sensors and cameras.
