"BorgWarner has many different types of each of the small components that go into their core assembly, but there's no traceability system, so there's no way to tell at the end of the process if the correct parts were used..."
- Sarah Klemsz (MSCM '15)
BorgWarner Turbo Systems tasked its 2015 Tauber team with solving its small parts inventory management and tracking challenges. The team's plan could save BorgWarner $10.61m annually - and earned them 2nd place at SPOTLIGHT!

- Olivier Kazandjian (MBA '04), GM, Maersk Line
Tauber's global reputation for operations excellence lured French citizen Olivier Kazandjian across the Atlantic to earn his MBA, and set him on a new path.

"I decided I really liked teaching and the academic life style so I gave up a good job at P&G for an uncertain future in a PhD program."

Generations of U-M grads are grateful Professor Talbot made the choice to teach. Tauber teams now benefit from Talbot's current research on development of heuristic and optimal solution procedures for production and manpower planning, vehicle loading and resource-constrained scheduling.
