Steyr-Daimler-Puch Spezialfahrzeug GmbH

Offset / Industrial Participation

GDELS-Steyr offers to its international customers its tested competence and experience in the development and implementation of quality offset. The programs aim at securing a long-term impact on the local economy, achieved through a blend of activities primarily in the areas of technology and know-how transfer, local production, export promotion, investment and joint venture, depending on the preferences of the customers.

GDELS-Steyr has earned a reputation of fulfilling offset obligations to the full satisfaction of its contractual partners. Programs successfully completed in Belgium, Greece, Kuwait and Uruguay may serve as examples.

GDELS-Steyr’s offset knowledge base dates back to the former holding company Steyr-Daimler-Puch AG, where GDELS-Steyr was a member, and where offset was realized with success in countries with divergent project priorities, such as Algeria, Ireland, Canada, Poland, China and Vietnam.

At present, GDELS-Steyr manages offset programs at different levels of implementation in Belgium, Kuwait, Portugal, and Slovenia.

The above programs cover both military and non-military projects, the latter predominantly in the field of automotive and related technologies, as well as technology transfer. All projects are being implemented in strict compliance with the regulations and guidelines applicable in the respective country.
