Gauge management on track at Bosch Automotive
The Bosch Group is a leading global supplier of technology and services in the areas of automotive and industrial technology, consumer goods and building technology. The Automotive Technology division is Bosch's largest business sector in North America employing approximately 12,200 associates at approximately 30 primary locations.

While there are 29 Bosch US and international facilities that have GAGEtrak installed, the Andersboschcybermetricson, SC location of Robert Bosch is responsible for managing 4,500 gages and conducting 4,000 calibrations each year to ensure accurate and reliable measurements of their gasoline systems products. Bosch chose GAGEtrak Calibration Management Software to track their metrology assets, schedule their calibrations and maintain a system that is compliant with their corporate quality requirements and standards.

Ben Thomas at Robert Bosch has used GAGEtrak for over 10 years  and notes that GAGEtrak was chosen because "It seemed to be user friendly and was in-depth (but) not an overkill." Prior to GAGEtrak, the company used filing cabinets and index cards to track calibrations. With GAGEtrak, the calibration tracking process at Robert Bosch became almost paperless. "GAGEtrak streamlined our recall process." says Thomas.
