Siemens and DB Schenker sign global frame agreement for warehousing
DB Schenker’s contract logistics unit is the first provider to conclude a global warehousing agreement with Siemens
Siemens and DB Schenker have agreed on a frame agreement for warehousing to enhance their business relationship at a global level. DB Schenker is the first contract logistics provider to sign such an agreement with Siemens.
The global frame agreement covers a set of terms and conditions and will be effective for all Siemens business units globally. Initiation and closing of new contract logistics business will be handled under these defined conditions. Siemens endeavour to facilitate commercial negotiations and discussions of conditions through this contractual basis.
Siemens is reorganising its warehousing set-up worldwide, targeting a high quality, flexible and cost efficient warehousing network. The aim is to focus in the future on fewer preferred suppliers, with whom the basic conditions for warehousing have been previously agreed.
“This is an important step for us to enhance our business relation and basis. The global frame agreement represents a clear commitment from both parties to work even closer on a global level. This will allow DB Schenker to provide more customer-focused solutions for the Siemens warehousing network”, comments Robert Walpole, Senior Vice President Contract Logistics, DB Schenker.
