Abstract
A profile is presented of Germany´s engineering giant, which is investing billions of Deutschemarks in a restructuring and acquisition program to enhance its international competitiveness. To better manage its businesses on a worldwide basis, the company has split seven large divisions into 15 smaller ones, giving each worldwide responsibility for a particular technology. These moves and the factors that motivated them are discussed.<>
