In
keeping with its respect for the individual’s own culture,
traditions and environment, Aliaxis regards itself as a federation
of businesses all working together towards common objectives,
and accordingly has developed a style of its own.
• Respect for
the identity of each business in the Group
Aliaxis has developed its position in the market principally
through the acquisition of good businesses with strong reputations.
Each acquired entity has retained its name, trade marks, products,
systems and management so as to preserve those same qualities
that generated its strength and success in the first place,
and in particular the closeness to its customers.
• Respect for our customers
The central objective of all Aliaxis companies is to listen
to their customers’ needs, and facilitate customers’
use of their products through constant enhancements to the product
range, technical improvements, effective delivery and through
the development of a range of complementary services.
• Respect for the countries
in which we operate
The sophisticated product ranges we offer in each country in
all cases reflect the standards and traditions of that country.
• Development of synergies
Preserving the identity of each company is not an obstacle to
the development of synergies between them. At the same time
as taking account of the values of each business, the management
of Aliaxis pursues:
- product exchanges between companies
- rationalisation of investment opportunities to
optimise the utilisation of capital
- development of joint purchasing arrangements.
• Unified reporting
Decentralisation is only possible if the strategy of Aliaxis
is exactly aligned with the objectives of each company within
the Group. Every company is therefore required to report its
performance on a monthly basis and to present an annual plan
in accordance with a common framework and standards.
