Major international order for Semcon Automotive R&D

Semcon has received an international order of around SEK 60 million against stiff competition from three German suppliers. The order spans three years covering management and engineering of a new car project.

“This is a major step in our internationalisation,” says Stefan Ohlsson, Vice president Semcon Automotive R&D. “It’s also very pleasing to win this order against such stiff international competition. This shows that Semcon has an attractive portfolio of services and that our investment in the international market is paying off.” A prolonged trend in the automotive industry is that manufacturers are subcontracting – all or parts of – major development projects to subcontractors and partners, and Semcon is continuously developing tools and methods to allow it to run more extensive projects. “Over the past 20 years we have built up the expertise and know-how required for development projects of this calibre,” he concludes.
