LATIN AMERICA SECTOR is currently delivering 900,000 tons annually .
Another reason for the current facility expansion is the development of SOBOPRET , the company ’ s new prefab building material brand and also its newest business unit . SOBOPRET is introducing complete prefab housing and other materials for this purpose . This operation is currently under constant growth and development , and products such as prefab concrete beams are certified by the Bolivian Institute of Regulations and Quality ( IBNORCA ), with the IBNORCA Quality Seal .
As part of the Southern Cement Consortium , operation management demands system updating . SOBOCE is taking care of this demand by installing a SAP / HANA latest-generation platform to standardize processes and display the best practices .
Supplier evaluation and segmentation
The company ’ s suppliers are classified into any of three categories : raw material vendors , purveyors related to goods and services related to the production process and quality , and suppliers contributing to proper compliance of occupational health and safety standards ( OHSAS ).
Every supplier undergoes a yearly technical evaluation conducted under the country ’ s regulations as well as under ISO : 9001 , ISO : 14001 and OSHSAS : 18001 standards , according to the group ’ s Integrated Quality Policy .
