Homepage Competencies Operational Excellence OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE Excellent production by KAMAX worldwide Customer satisfaction through global collaboration and continuous improvement Operational excellence at KAMAX (or OPEX@KX for short) is our production management system. Not only does it describe excellent production by and for all KAMAX plants worldwide but also the path to continuous improvement. As a navigator and orientation guide, customer satisfaction, our own goals and the systematic improvement process are linked to each other by twelve principles for excellent production. These twelve principles specify the direction but simultaneously provide room for plant and country-specific designs. Involving employees in shaping the processes is an essential part of OPEX@KX. As a result, every employee helps improve the system and actively helps shape the future at KAMAX. Learning from each other and with each other The OPEX scan is the link between the plants. Following the motto "today's benchmark is tomorrow's standard", all plants can learn from each other via the OPEX scan, since the status and the processes of other plants are transparently shown to everybody at all times. Special attention is given to actively exchanging knowledge among employees at the various locations to mutually learn from the strengths of others in this manner.
