      The Interim Manager was rapidly onboarded on site, with a focus on financials, organisational setup, and operational processes.<\/p>\n

      As part of the analysis, the Interim Manager not only reviewed operational performance indicators but also incorporated the potential of the company-owned real estate into the restructuring considerations. Key factors such as size, layout, location, technical condition, and refurbishment requirements were assessed and benchmarked against the future space requirements of the business.<\/p>\n

      Based on this analysis, several realistic scenarios<\/strong><\/span> were evaluated:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • C<\/span>ontinuation at the existing site (downsizing)<\/li>\n
      • New build (brownfield approach)<\/li>\n
      • Sale-and-lease-back of the existing property<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Alignment with Group Management was continuous and closely coordinated.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” min_height=”600px” top_divider_style=”slant” top_divider_color=”#FFFFFF” bottom_divider_style=”slant” bottom_divider_color=”#FFFFFF” bottom_divider_flip=”horizontal” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” background_image=”https:\/\/www.eim.com\/ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/_pda\/2026\/04\/pexels-cottonbro-5532675-scaled.jpg”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ background_color=”#ffffff” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”5em||9em||false|false” top_divider_color=”#ffffff” top_divider_flip=”horizontal|vertical” bottom_divider_style=”slant” bottom_divider_color=”#db932b” global_colors_info=”{}” locked=”off”][et_pb_row admin_label=”Title Area” module_id=”results” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ background_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0)” width=”100%” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”0%|0px|0%|0px|false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ text_font=”Montserrat|700|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”20px” header_font=”||||||||” max_width=”90%” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”3%|0px|3%|0px|true|false” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” animation_style=”flip” animation_direction=”left” animation_intensity_flip=”30%” animation_starting_opacity=”100%” hover_enabled=”0″ header_2_font_size_tablet=”” header_2_font_size_phone=”25px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]

        • Robust decision-making proposal for the real estate strategy with a clear financial recommendation<\/li>\n

        • Initiation of initial construction and adaptation measures<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
            <\/ul>\n

            None of the evaluated alternatives (new build or sale-and-lease-back) met the required financial criteria. Key drivers were the expected sale proceeds, high rental costs, and significant upfront investment required at a new site.<\/p>\n

            The Interim Manager therefore recommended a focused continuation and optimisation of the existing site, supported by a clearly defined implementation plan. The plan was approved, and initial structural adjustments were initiated.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Title Area” module_id=”mandateextension” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ background_color=”#e6e6e6″ width=”100%” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”2%|2%|1%|2%|false|true” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ text_font=”Montserrat|700|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”20px” header_font=”||||||||” max_width=”90%” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”3%|0px|3%|0px|true|false” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” animation_style=”flip” animation_direction=”left” animation_intensity_flip=”30%” animation_starting_opacity=”100%” hover_enabled=”0″ header_2_font_size_tablet=”” header_2_font_size_phone=”25px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″ locked=”off”]

            In the course of the engagement, the Interim Manager additionally assumed operational responsibility for the site following the departure of the local Managing Director.<\/p>\n

            The objective was to ensure business continuity, stabilise the organisation during a period of high uncertainty, and manage all relevant stakeholders \u2013 in particular the works council \u2013 until a reconciliation of interests was achieved and a permanent successor appointed.<\/p>\n

            Within a short period, numerous discussions were held with managers and employees. In parallel, a structured and regular exchange with the works council was established.<\/p>\n

            On this basis, a comprehensive action and roadmap (\u201cCompany XX 2030\u201d) was developed, defining the strategic direction and organisational development of the site. In close alignment with Group Management, key structural adjustments were defined, including:<\/p>\n
