Our suppliers work in a partnership with us and we ensure that they are clear about our demands. We continuously check and assess the services and give objective feedback. |
Management and EmployeesWe find a long-term objective and orientation from our guiding principle. We derive short-term action from the jointly drawn up Balanced Scorecard, the results of which we regularly monitor and improve by comparing the ideal and actual situations. We constantly query our status quo and learn from the best, including those in other areas of industry. We share our knowledge among ourselves so that we can continuously improve. Our motivated employees are the key to our success. We have committed ourselves to strategy-oriented personnel development. We specifically foster the skills of our employees, directly adapted to the product and process development of our company. We aim to create equal opportunities for all employees. The next generation of employees is trained in our apprenticeship scheme. Our success depends of the performance of every individual and on us seeing ourselves as part of a team. Process OrientationOur main processes form the basis of our claim that we immediately take care of all tasks correctly. Our working methods are constantly improved. We do this by including all involved in the continuing monitoring, assessment and improvement of activities. This continuous process helps us to identify gaps in implementation that we close immediately. Information and CommunicationWe foster confidence with early, honest information appropriate to the situation. Our communication is direct, open and marked by mutual appreciation. SustainabilityWe are committed to Germany as a production site and encourage the expansion of our plant in Weissenburg. We can do this only if we work intelligently and productively to compensate for the cost disadvantages at the location. We want to create jobs and secure the existing jobs. Moreover, we aim to improve the social and environmental policy influences. We will help people to realise their goals. |
