Business Partner of PRIMETALS
Since the January 2021 in Mexico as "On Site Project Manager" for the Hot Strip Mill Turn Key Project ARCELOR MITTAL at Lazaro Cardenas and since June 2022 at TERNIUM Hot Skin Pass Mill as Task Force Manager
The focus for ARCELOR Mittal Lazaro Cardenas was to increase the progress and performance of the installation dramatically. The inefficiency resulted from the in-competences of the local civil and installation company and the lack of availability of competent local installation personnel.
Essential improvements could be achieved mainly with bringing more than 10 new installation companies especially for piping, electric & automation system installation, as well as the forming of a new competent on site team.
Furthermore excellent client cooperation could be achieved to reach the common goal.
For TERNIUM the goal is to prepare structure and processes for the planned FAC Performance Tests - Availability as well as Production and Quality Tests for the Hot Skin Pass Mill. This needs internal alignment with PRIMETALS location in Japan, US, Germany and Austria as well as different cultures within TERNIUM such as Argentinian, Columbian, Venezuelan and of course Mexican.

When I arrived more than one year ago, nobody expected that production would take place in 2021, but a strong newly formed PRIMETALS team, many new installation sub-suppliers and excellent cooperation with the customer ARCELOR MITTAL Lazaro Cardenas AMLC made the almost impossible - possible!
THANKS to the entire team, that I was apointed to manage and lead together with my commercial partner.

We appreciate all your support in the project!
The project took a lot longer than planned, because of COVID and lot of other impacts, but I can say that the coordination and team work with PRIMETALS improved significantly after your arrival to the project!!!

Jorge Nieto
CTO AMLC Arcelor Mittal Lazaro Cardenas - Mexico
I have had the opportunity to work and collaborate with Guenter over 15 months during the construction of a large heavy industrial facility in Mexico. Guenter brought a lot of experience to the project and instituted several initiatives, not limited to daily on-site construction reviews - War Rooms - where the activities for the coming day were reviewed along with the progress of the previous day.
It has been a pleasure working with Guenther. I have personally learned from his experience which will help me in the Guenter demonstrated a high degree of motivation in the execution of his daily activities.
He drew on his previous experience to find solutions for challenging situations during the construction of the plant. He is very open and honest with his views which gives him credibility.
It has been a pleasure working with Guenter. I have personally learned from his experience, which will help me in the future.
