The new BMW plant required planning and cost certainty from the initial groundbreaking ceremony through to normal operations at a later date. The plant structure is characterised in such a way that the three main production halls (body shop, paint shop and assembly) are grouped in a circular design around a central administration, communication and services building (central building). As a result, the production areas are closely interlinked.
