Key elements of our strategyTechnological leadership as the guarantee for quality, optimal product lifetime cost, higher process efficiency and extended functionality. Our key competencies are reiforced where needed and bundled into global centres of competence.
Standardised processes and close cooperation between portfolio management and de-velopment within regions and the group as a whole lay the foundation for a targeted portfolio renewal based on real customer requirements and market opportunities.
Regional organisation based on 5 regions: North America, South America, UK, Europe and Asia Pacific. Collaboration with the most qualified suppliers worldwide, a network of specialised development centres, local engineering resources coupled with our own sales offices in our most important markets enable a close partnership with our customers.
Growth, via regional diversification, portfolio enlargement - also through acquisitions and partnerships. In addition, we expand our areas of competence along our customer's process chain - from the meter through to total solutions including supporting services.
We contribute to a better environmentAdditionally, we strive to further strengthen and expand our position as front-runner in Advanced Metering. Only with the knowledge as to how much energy is needed and for what, can someone optimize the efficiency of his or her energy usage. This is the premise upon which intelligent solutions for energy measurement are built.
By investing in Advanced Metering solutions and infrastructure we anticipate the growing demand for solutions to reduce the gap between energy supply and demand, as well as decreasing the risks of demand bottlenecks and network collapse.
By doing so, we can contribute to more efficient use of resources and hence better environmental outcomes
