German door and window manufacturer with 1,500+ staff across six production sites
JELD-WEN Deutschland manufactures doors and windows at scale—over 1.25 million doors annually from its Oettingen facility alone—serving specialized retailers and professional builders across residential and commercial segments. The tech stack is heavily weighted toward industrial control (Siemens S7, TIA Portal, CNC, EPLAN) and business operations (Salesforce Marketing Cloud, Power BI), reflecting a manufacturing-first organization now working through digitization: active projects span EHS strategy rollout, warehouse management system deployment, and product information management implementation, while pain points cluster around accident reduction, reporting optimization, and supply-chain efficiency.
