Abstract: Abstract This chapter highlights the adaption of the St.Gallen Management Model for Global Manufacturing Networks for the CLAAS manufacturing network. The chapter starts with a short introduction about the characteristics and challenges of the company. Next, the adaption of the model along the three layers of strategy, configuration, and coordination is described. Adaption in this context means that CLAAS deliberately aligned the underlying concepts and frameworks to the specific needs of the company. This demonstrates the broad applicability of the approach in practice. Further, additional concepts and frameworks are described that enrich the model and helped the company to find their individual path toward a more effective and efficient global manufacturing network. Finally, the chapter is completed with a summary and an outlook on digitalization ambitions which support the network strategy.
