BME buyers' day
![[Translate to English:]](/moulding-expo/fileadmin/media/besucher/Rahmenprogramm/BME/mex-23-bme-header.jpg "BME buyers' day")
Tools have a significant impact on the cost and quality of the products to be manufactured. Since high quality comes at a price, the procurement of tools is a challenge. Comprehensive cost analysis, cooperation with suppliers at an early stage as well as technical factors allow an optimal procuring strategy.
The BME Purchasing Day is the platform for purchasing experts who want to make well-founded decisions. Organised by the Bundesverband Materialwirtschaft, Einkauf und Logistik e.V. (BME), the event offers practical presentations on current developments, innovative strategies and the most important trends in the industry.
From benchmarking and cost cuttings to global sourcing - participants will receive valuable impulses for optimising their purchasing processes and actively shaping the future of purchasing.

‘Market conditions are changing due to geopolitical changes, and supply chains need to be scrutinised and reconsidered. The changes to the legal framework brought about by the EU also present purchasing with new challenges. With its choice of topics, the BME Buyers' Day supports industry experts in making well-founded and strategic purchasing decisions, even in times of crisis.’
