Maximilian Hofmann is Liebherr’s Global Industrial Services Manager. His mission is to ensure the seamless operation of machines and plants at the customer’s premises. In order to optimize their availability and productivity, his department offers the appropriate service – right from the start. “We offer our customers preemptive measures and individual consultation. This helps them to use our machines optimally and to avoid downtimes. This ultimately saves costs and ensures competitiveness,” says Maximilian Hofmann, explaining the concept.

The department sees itself as a universal interface between customer requirements and what Liebherr can offer. Each user has his own maintenance strategies for his equipment and machines, which result in different requirements for manufacturer support. Liebherr’s service packages are tailored precisely to this.

Our customers receive all these services worldwide, through the same system and in the same quality.
