Operational Excellence - The roots of success

"MM Maschinenmarkt" provides tools for efficiency and effectiveness - optimizing business processes

Many companies ask themselves the question: Do I only need to find the right strategy to be successful in the long term? Is that enough? Although strategy is an essential prerequisite, the decisive factor for the long-term, sustainable success of a company is not just the definition of a strategy or individual goals, but the successful alignment of the organization with the market and customers as well as the continuous measurement of certain key performance indicators, such as the quality of products and services or the ability to respond to new market opportunities.

The continuous improvement of efficiency and effectiveness is a prerequisite for companies to achieve economic success. The high competitive pressure is also a motivation for many entrepreneurs to engage with management methods for fundamental optimization. Operational Excellence (Opex) probably offers the most comprehensive and in-depth approach here.

In its annual issue, "MM Maschinenmarkt" takes a comprehensive look at the topic of "Operational Excellence: Strategy, Organization, Processes - Continuously Optimizing Business Processes". The trade publication looks back at the origins of the approach, presents specific methods and strategies for use in companies and highlights the relevant success factors of the approach.

Successfully applied, Opex can reduce operating costs by double digits and increase employee motivation, for example. "Precisely because operational excellence is a complex topic, it should be approached at an early stage," emphasizes Editor-in-Chief Frank Jablonski: "The aim of our annual issue is to create awareness, find ways and contacts and perhaps take the first step today: The journey is the reward."
