Tiivistelmä
Normet Group Oy works in the technology industry, providing equipment, services and construction technologies for mining and tunneling businesses. Its business is largely affected by its supplier network in the form of material availability and costs. Therefore, Normet Supplier Days was organized to invite key suppliers to learn about the company and the benefits of working together and to strengthen the cooperation. The event concerned two subsidiaries of Normet Group: Normet Oy and Normet International.
Plenty of preparations were required to build a versatile and smooth event. The tasks were divided in the project team; while the project manager was responsible of the content for the days, the organizers handled all the practical arrangements such as venues, meals, transportations and materials. Safety issues were considered throughout the event.
Normet Supplier Days was organized on 5th – 6th September 2019. Feedback was gathered from guests and Normet personnel who participated in the event. It showed that the event was a success; the agenda was comprehensive, the topics relevant and everything went smoothly. The main development areas appeared in the group division for workshops and in the dissemination of information early enough.
