There is a growing demand for states and companies to improve and reconstruct their economic and organizational structures for efficiency and competition in engineering. To create more workplaces in the Federal Republic of Germany, especially in the country Saxony-Anhalt, a need was identified to provide production plants with new products and new manufacturing technologies. The Experimental Factory was born and is located within reach of the universities in Magdeburg. Magdeburg, once one of the most important location of plant construction and heavy mechanical engineering has, because of recession in mechanical engineering in general and particularly because of the strong dependence on East-European market, lost its importance. Because of reorganization processes after the reunification in Germany extensive changes took place in the region of the industrial area Saxony-Anhalt. Big businesses divided up into many small companies with a size between 50 and 150 employees. Mostly in these businesses research and development resources and the necessary equity capital were not available, in order to realize the' necessary ln:~ novation impulse. Many of these enterprises are technological orientated supplier without own product responsibility. They have to face the increasing pressure of competition and because of that they must undertake many efforts concerning the optimisation of their products and their process development to keep their position in the competition.
