It provides an overview of Trelleborg's finances, operations, and purchasing spend. Trelleborg has implemented a purchasing excellence program to train non-buyer employees and professional buyers. The program includes e-learning modules, classroom training, and coaching. As of 2012, over 1,500 employees had completed e-learning training. The goal is to standardize purchasing practices and increase savings. By 2012, the purchasing excellence program had achieved over 3 million Euros in cumulative savings.
