KraussMaffei responded positively to the crisis by establishing an internal working group and forming a linkage mechanism with the two neighboring companies to jointly fight the epidemic.

Specific measures include adopting CEO approval system, strictly limiting necessary travel, greatly reducing the number of meetings, maximizing home office, providing medical personnel on the site, setting up emergency isolation and treatment area, and restricting the entry of outsiders without health certificate into the company or plant area.

Though the epidemic to some extent affected the supply of raw materials, KraussMaffei took early measures to obtain a part of alternative supply, so far there is no cut-off of supply.
