Phoenix Contact\u2019s plan to boost appeal, lower costs and reduce emissions in the fleet has been a resounding success for the electrical engineering and automation expert. And all thanks to the clever consolidation and electrification strategy developed in collaboration with the Volkswagen Group.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

There can be little doubt any more that the future is electric. At Phoenix Contact, however, this is already the case today \u2013 and not just in terms of the product portfolio. The leading manufacturer of electrical engineering and automation solutions for industry, renewable energies, infrastructure, etc. has also firmly committed itself to electrifying its fleet. Or, to be more precise, to electric mobility from the Volkswagen Group. \u201cNot only do we intend to fully electrify our fleet in Germany in the coming years, we have also consolidated it systematically by moving away from a multi-sourcing model towards a single supplier strategy\u201d, says Fleet Manager Christian Fiege as he outlines the fleet strategy. Two major developments for the company, which manages more than 630 vehicles in its home country.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

About one hour\u2019s drive east of Bielefeld, the town of Blomberg in North Rhine-Westphalia is home to the headquarters of Phoenix\u202fContact. Founded in 1923, the company chose this same location to launch an impressive project to mark its 100th anniversary. The All Electric Society Park is an interactive experience world that brings to life the vision of a sustainable, connected and electrified society: featuring a comprehensive array of solar panels, a walk-in wind turbine nacelle, energy storage systems and, of course, charging points for electric vehicles.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]\u201cAs you can see, we know a thing or two about electrical engineering<\/span>\u201d,<\/span> comments Fleet Manager Christian Fiege with a grin as they walk across the extraordinary grounds. It was <\/span>pretty simple<\/span> therefore to convince the staff of the merits of electrifying the fleet: \u201cWe prepared well, communicated clearly and now everyone is on board<\/span>\u201d,<\/span> he explains. Pure combustion engine vehicles, adds Fiege, will only be available for <\/span>very specific<\/span> uses from now on or by special permission. \u201c<\/span>There\u2019s<\/span> also an extra premium when combustion engine models or plug-in hybrids are <\/span>actually <\/span>requested<\/span>. Our focus is clearly on fully battery-electric vehicles<\/span><\/span>.\u201c[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”36711″ img_size=”large” css=””][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

\u201cThanks to single sourcing with the Volkswagen Group, we expect to achieve potential savings in the seven-digit range over the next three years<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/h2>\n

From complex multi-sourcing \u2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]Focus is also a good keyword for the second major change to Phoenix Contact\u2019s fleet. Since the beginning of 2025, the company has relied almost exclusively on vehicles from the Volkswagen Group, which are leased through Volkswagen Leasing GmbH. \u201cFor a long time, company car users were given a relatively free choice of vehicle and manufacturer within our car policy. Over time, this led to significant administrative overhead\u201d, reflects Christian Fiege. His colleague Jan Patrick K\u00fcbler from Strategic Purchasing adds: \u201cNot only did we have to manage all kinds of leasing contracts, financially we were at a disadvantage too because some of the leasing rates were quite high.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

\u2026 to efficient single-sourcing<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Phoenix Contact has now successfully reversed this time-consuming and costly situation: firstly because collaboration with Volkswagen Financial Services has made processes much more efficient and secondly because leasing rates are lower in general and, above all, reliable. \u201cWith open market competition, it was common enough for leasing rates to change again slightly after signing the contract, which complicated processing further\u201d, says Jan Patrick K\u00fcbler as he describes the situation formerly. Looking ahead, the purchasing expert expects potential savings in the seven-digit range to be achieved over the next three years thanks to the new procurement strategy. \u201cThat suits us just fine\u201d, comments K\u00fcbler tongue-in-cheek. \u201cPhoenix Contact is a good example of the advantages that our single sourcing model offers both financially and as regards process efficiency\u201d, highlights the responsible Key Account Manager, Natalie Feickert, from Volkswagen Financial Services AG.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cFor our fleet, this means electric rather than combustion engines. The main focus for us is the ID.7 Tourer from Volkswagen. It really is the perfect fleet vehicle for us.\u201c<\/span><\/h2>\n

From emissions to costs \u2013 there are plenty of savings to be made in Phoenix Contact\u2019s fleet, with one exception: the attractiveness of the fleet. \u201cIt has increased since the consolidation\u201d, affirms Fleet Manager Christian Fiege. \u201cThe feedback from our drivers is quite unequivocal here.\u201d The ID. models from Volkswagen are extremely popular \u2013 particularly the family favourite the ID.7 Tourer with its impressive range. \u201cI would even go so far as to say that it is unrivalled in this vehicle class from our point of view \u2013 incidentally also in terms of leasing rates\u201d, states Fiege.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

This positive feedback is also welcome news for the responsible Fleet Customer Area Manager Christine Scherp from Volkswagen Passenger Cars: \u201cWe are delighted to have convinced such a progressive company of our vehicles and to be able to accompany it on its journey to zero emission mobility.\u201d The Phoenix Contact fleet also includes electric vehicles from the Group brands Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, Audi and \u0160koda. Fleet Manager Fiege comments: \u201cThe multi-brand strategy naturally plays right into our hands; the Volkswagen Group can offer us a fully-fledged combustion engine equivalent in practically every vehicle class. Service-wise also, we have optimal support across our locations thanks to the expansive dealership network. That\u2019s the ideal scenario.<\/span>\u201c<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Before I often had to turn up the volume on the radio to lessen the sound of the engine. Now with the ID.7, I simply glide along relaxed and calm. As a dad to twins, what I really like also is the excellent space the car offers. And if anyone asks me sceptically about the range, I simply tell them you need a break anyway after travelling 300 or 400 kilometres. After a quick recharge, you\u2019re ready to go again. I can travel effortlessly from Blomberg to Munich, for example, on any given day with just one charging break.\u201c<\/p>\n

This also applies to the wide selection of electric vehicles available from the Volkswagen Group. I could really see myself choosing the ID.7, for example, as my next vehicle.\u201c<\/p>\n

Ulrich Leidecker, Chief Operating Officer, Phoenix Contact GmbH & Co. KG<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]\u201cI regularly visit customers in the Audi Q4 e-tron, covering longer distances too. Admittedly, it was a little strange the first time \u2013 but once you get used to the technology, the driving experience is just fantastic, especially on country roads. As for charging on the road, I have nothing but good things to say. In my experience, you are always likely to find a charging point even late at night. And there\u2019s another added benefit: Because breaks for recharging are a little longer than for refuelling, I\u2019m a lot more relaxed when I reach my destination.\u201c<\/p>\n
