# Switch our main steel supplier from Acier Léman to Stahl Nord from 01.01.2027

Decided on 27.08.2026 in [[sources/2026-08-27-decision-memo-steel-supplier|Decision memo: steel supplier from 2027]].

## Why

- Stahl Nord is about CHF 76'000 a year cheaper once the cost of late deliveries is counted.
- Stahl Nord delivers in 5 days and sends the 3.1 material certificate with every delivery; Acier Léman was late on 9 of 22 deliveries and twice delivered without certificates.
