Corporate Goals
Corporate Goals
- Customer needs first
- Technology realignment
- Establishing a global network
Established 1990
Akebono’s corporate policy was established under three aspects which consists of “monozukuri” (value added product manufacturing), technology and global development for further advancement which upholds our “Corporate Goals”.
The customers who are our end-users are those who use our products. Akebono’s “monozukuri” (value added product manufacturing) is about capturing the needs of our customers and is a reflection of Akebono’s principle and goal regarding “customer needs first”.
By further pursuing “friction and vibration” which is Akebono’s core technology, “technology realignment” is indication of Akebono’s commitment in creating new technology.
Furthermore, increase of expansion can be expected in the Asian market, in addition to Japan, North America and Europe. We aim at “establishing a global network” by building a structure to deepen mutual knowledge in our global base countries.
“APS” as Akebono’s Corporate Philosophy
From 「Akebono Production System」To
「Akebono Philosophy and Spirit」
Established 1990
One simple way of describing APS =“Akebono Production System” would be to say that it aims for the continual elimination of waste which is the basis of Akebono’s pursuit in manufacturing value- added products.
Akebono will strive further than only to implement the APS production method. The “Akebono Philosophy and Spirit “ will be the criteria in ensuring both the manufacture of value-added products and in analyzing what we do as an entire group.
“Manufacturing of value-added products is development of human talent”. We will clearly pinpoint all problems and incidents of wastage hidden within daily business operations to create awareness of APS and promote development of human talent to create individuals to be able to think and solve issues.
We will raise the profile of APS by forming bonds throughout the Group which will enable us to surmount any cultural barriers.
