Volvemos a la guerra Opel VS Saab, Russelheim VS Trollhattan.
El presidente del comite de empresa de Opel Klaus Franz, ha tenido la genial idea de decir que GM tiene que vender Saab, pero que ello no implica perder la colaboracion con la marca y que Russelheim se convierta en contratista de Saab fabricando modelos para la marca.
Vamos, que mas egoismo y mas listo por no decir palabras mayores no se puede ser........Cuando querian hechar a gente en fabrica de Opel, fue el primero en pedir a los suecos que hicieran frente comun contra GM para meter presion y no hecharan a mas gente.
Ahora, pues que como ven que los recursos son limitados, pues, saab fuera y todo para nosotros........eso si, continuando siendo amigos y trabajando para Saab en lo que nos convenga.
Si GM vende Saab, lo primero una buena patada en la boca al Franz.
El sindicato de Ingenieros Suecos, presidido por Hakan Danielsson, para el que no lo sepa es el ingeniero jefe de aerodinamica en Saab, seguro que lo habreis visto en mas de una foto de un Saab en el tunel de viento.

Saab wants to take the german production home
Saab Automobile is working hard to get the production of the new 9-5 from Russelsheim in Germany, back home to Sweden. It has shown that the factory in Trollhättan lately has passed the German factory in aspects of effeciency and cost.
According to the sources of Dagens Industri Saab has studied the options of taking the production of the new 9-5 home to Trollhättan as well as the 9-3 convertible. The suprisingly fast improvement of the efficiency in the Swedish factory presented itself at Saabs most recent board-meeting last Tuesday, when Carl-Peter Forster reported on the status.
Håkan Danielsson, the chairman of the union Swedish Engineers says: We had requested a presentation about which of the two factories were the most cost-efficient as per manufacturing cost per vehicle and the Trollhättan factory turned out to be the one.
The cost per manufactured 9-5 at Trollhättan is about 20 000 SEK (swedish kronor) which turned out to be approximately 2000 SEK less than the Russelsheim factory (Approx 20% ) (I’m not sure of the math there - SW).
This means that the original desicion to move the production of the new 9-5 from Sweden to Germany is being questioned.
“It is obvious that GM´s leaders in Europe first will protect the German interests as well as German jobs. One reason is probably fear of the German unions”, Håkan Danielsson says, who participated at the GM board-meeting.
“It was never an option at the meeting to change the desicion of manufacturing the NG 9-5 in Germany, on the contrary it was discussed to further move jobs to Russelsheim” Danielsson says.
Now they are speaking of design workers to move their jobs away from Trollhättan.
“For example designing of roof-boxes (for skiis), bike-holders and other optionals that we always have been good at in Trollhättan is being moved even though we are more cost-efficient.” says Danielsson.
One reason for Saabs efficiency, is the billion-class investments that has been made in the factory. Bodywork, painting, steelpresses and assembly departments are completely new with state of the art equipment and facilities. Manufacturing has been improved multiple times and the salory-costs is much lower than in Germany.
“For engineers and other white-collar workers the salories can be up to 40% lower in Trollhättan compared to Russelsheim and for the blue-collar workers the difference is approximately up to 50% lower at Trollhättan.” Danielsson says.
He tells us that more than few of the engineers makes approximately 3000 euros per month while the German engineers are being paid between 5-6000 euros.
The calculation of costs does not include logistics where Russelsheim is doing better, “but according to our calculations we still are cheaper then the Germans. Especially in Saabs big markets as Sweden, the US, UK we are better of then Russelsheim due to the fact that we are close to a major harbour”. (Gothenburg).
