ABM starts with our Core Values: People, Process, Performance
“The foundation of a great business is having great people. It follows, then, that working to develop, engage, empower and energize our people is both a core ATS value and the first of our three pillars, followed by process, and then performance, at the foundation of the ABM.” – Andrew Hider, CEO
“At its core, our ABM is our pursuit of continuous improvement in everything we do. If we have a standard process, and we can measure that process, we are capable of driving sustainable improvements.” – Jeremy Patten, President – ATS Products & Food Technology Group
“After the Kaizen event, I am amazed at the results we delivered in just one week. Please keep driving the ABM throughout the business” – Production Team Leader, Cambridge Life Science Division
It is the relentless pursuit of continuous improvement, leveraging the skills and training from a great team, that will deliver world class performance for employees, customers, and shareholders. This is more than just lean manufacturing – our ABM is who we are and how we do business, and it will continue to be our competitive advantage at ATS.
