Innovation and excellence

Management methods for innovation transformation

Clear mission and strategic goals

With a clearly defined mission, strategic goals and management support, even the Hungarian subsidiary of an international group can achieve significant developments. The Melecs mission statement defines the continuous development and improvements of the group. The following factors should be highlighted:1

“We provide innovative solutions in clearly defined areas.
We are constantly deepening our competencies along the value chain.
We trust in the abilities of our employees and create the necessary framework conditions for independent, process- and results-oriented operation.
We ensure our economic success and growth through an active quality policy and strategic cooperation.
We stand by our European locations, are ready to take on the challenges of globalisation, and follow our customers worldwide to their most important markets.
We fulfil our obligation to society through active and sustainable environmental management.
Our performance consistently achieves positive results.”

The corporate policy clearly reflects the group's attitude towards customer needs and innovation:

“Meeting our customers' expectations and continuously improving their satisfaction is the driving force behind our organisational, technical and economic activities. Our goal is to be the preferred partner of our customers and business partners.
Based on innovative concepts and project development, we strive to produce safe, sustainable and intelligent products while protecting natural resources during development and production.
Only an economically healthy company can be a reliable long-term partner to our customers and suppliers. Therefore, we are constantly working to increase productivity, manage risks and reduce the costs of defective performance in order to achieve good financial results.
Our suppliers have a major impact on the quality and environmental impact of our products. Therefore, supplier development is an essential factor in our business success. We expect our business partners to share with us their basic expectations regarding compliance with laws, regulations and ethical standards.
Through the continuous improvement of our processes, based on established quality and environmental objectives and the application of a proven quality policy, we consistently achieve process, quality and environmental performance, as well as energy efficiency, in order to fulfil our obligations regarding the careful use of natural resources and the protection of the environment.”
