Operational Excellence
Operational excellence is practiced
on a daily basis by our global workforce of over 11000 employees. Whether best
practice sharing, standardization of business and production processes, implementation
of the Autoneum Production System (APS) or general efficiency and productivity
enhancements – operational excellence is pursued throughout Autoneum.
O
Quality
Quality orientation is the prerequisite for business success – this
particularly also applies to automotive suppliers as their components must satisfy
the highest quality requirements of vehicle manufacturers. The quality of parts and
systems is measured in “parts per million” (ppm). “Ppm” refers to the number of faulty
parts (error rates) in component production. This means that out of a million produced
parts only a given very small number may be defective.
Q
Profitable Growth
Autoneum focuses constantly on profitable
growth as one of its six strategic priorities. Thanks to the selective acceptance of
orders, operational excellence and the expansion of vertical integration, the
company not only has continuously increased sales since the separation back in
2011, but with an operating margin of 7.6% is also an above-average successful
automotive supplier.
