Andrew Allen

Head of Sales Commercial Vehicle and Off-Road

About the Speaker

Andrew Allen studied Total Technology in Mechanical Engineering at Imperial College, London. Since joining Bosch in the UK in 1989, he has held various sales positions at Bosch Mobility, –including the Aftermarket business – at various locations in the UK, Germany, Sweden, and the USA. He was also Regional President for Bosch in the Nordic region, covering all business sectors in nine countries.

Andrew has been involved in the commercial vehicles and off-road business since 2005. At first, worked in the Aftermarket business worldwide, and then assumed sales responsibility for three major customers. With the formation of the new CV/OR business unit at Bosch in 2016, Andrew was responsible for setting up the  new off-road business focus.  In 2019, he took over the overall responsibility for the commercial vehicles and off-road business unit and became worldwide head of sales for commercial vehicles and off-road customers in March 2021.

System Expertise for the Future of the Off-Road Segment

For Bosch, it's crucial to offer tailor-made and robust solutions for the Off-Road (OR) segment, both now and in the future, with the necessary system expertise. The market for OR applications will continue to be dominated by diesel and diesel derivatives for the foreseeable future. Diesel derivatives, such as HVO, can contribute to reducing CO2 emissions. Our portfolio in Fuel Injection Equipment (FIE) is broad, and our components are designed to be future-proof, meeting the demands of upcoming fuel systems. In summary, we are the right partner for the OR segment, offering a variety of services that help our customers increase efficiency and reduce emissions. Renewable fuels, both in pure form and as blends, are already available and market-ready and offer significant potential for reducing CO₂ emissions. This potential can be effectively utilized not only in road transport but also in the off-road segment (OR segment), for example, in agriculture and forestry. Bosch is intensively committed to making the combustion engine – which in many cases represents the only viable solution for the OR segment – sustainable and future-proof in road traffic as well through innovative solutions. Significantly stricter legal requirements for CO₂ reduction apply in road traffic, making it a key driver for technological innovations. One example of this is the Digital Fuel Twin (DFT), a system for vehicle-specific verification of CO₂ savings achieved through the use of renewable fuels. By providing such solutions for road traffic, we aim to ensure that Bosch components can continue to be used economically in agricultural vehicles and machinery, as development depends heavily on the road as a volume carrier. Currently, there are no CO₂ reduction requirements as strict in the OR segment as there are on the road. Nevertheless, very similar requirements, such as those evident in tenders for construction sites, are becoming increasingly important. Due to the often different structure from fuel supply to refueling, the current DFT solution cannot be transferred to the OR segment without adaptation. However, it certainly makes sense to analyze what can be transferred from the road to the OR segment.
