Cost Savings to you!
• When suppliers are located halfway around the
world in a different culture, utilizing an
Independent Contractor as a European based
resource eliminates the extraordinary travel
expense of sending a company representative
from the United States including accommodation
expense, travel time, overtime, per diem
expense and orientation time.
When an American Citizen is
required additional visa and work
permit costs are eliminated.

Cost Savings to you!
• Using an American Citizen resident in Germany
with EU work allowance eliminates the issues of
language and cultural differences. Additionally a
local Engineer can deal effectively with Top
Management and others throughout the
organization. Conveniences such as
transportation or additional vehicles, cellular
phones, the internet, and other
telecommunication essentials already exist
within the contractors infrastructure and don’t
have to be reinvented.

Cost Savings to you!
• No need to retain a full time employee for your
European Supplier surveillance. Contract
ACSEU only when you need us.
• Independent Contractors absorb the cost of
keeping their certifications and training up to
date.
• Experienced supplier quality specialist’s help the
supplier solve and prevent future
nonconformance's from occurring by using root
cause analysis, developing an effective
corrective action plan, and utilizing other quality
engineering techniques.

Cost Savings to you!
• Whether the role is as a technical Representative or Quality
Engineer, the ACSEU specialist becomes the eyes and ears of the
customer, because that role can be an on-demand service, the
structural costs of maintaining a full-time associate are eliminated.
The customer pays only for the services rendered when they are
required, without having to develop an infrastructure of its own.
Aside from that, there are no costs for healthcare, pensions, or other
structural expenes to accrue, as when using internal resources to
reach the same results.
• The cost savings achieved from the use of a European based
supplier specialist are easy to realize, but there is also the important
benefit of using these observations and expertise to leverage
additional cost savings in the form of continuous improvement
activities such as applying six sigma or poka-yoke tools. These
savings, derived from prevention, detection, or both can be
translated into lower manufacturing costs and eventally the
reduction of the purchase price.
