| It goes without saying that technological prowess and the ability to develop products are the foundations of a successful company. As a manufacturer of electronic devices, however, NEC TOKIN places extreme emphasis on quality control and production management. To perpetuate our supply of high-quality, homogenized products and to earn and retain customer confidence, we are constantly refining and upgrading our quality-control system and manufacturing infrastructure. This devotion to never-ending improvement is embodied by our efforts to enhance competitiveness and market value through our concept of Japan-oriented manufacturing. |

As the relationship between the cost of manufacturing and business growth becomes more intertwined and important, some companies choose to move their manufacturing operations overseas. But this raises many practical questions, not least of which is, How is it possible to produce highly functional, value-added products in locations far from the corporate headquarters?
NEC TOKIN believes that the only way to ensure the success of overseas manufacturing operations is to secure and maintain impeccable manufacturing standards at home. This is why we call ourselves a Japan-oriented manufacturing company. Guided and inspired by the standards and practices of our operations in Japan, our overseas facilities will always perform above and beyond the competition.
This refined, coordinated system of quality control and production management guarantees that NEC TOKIN’s output will include only high-quality devices made through a series of sophisticated, well-managed processes, even when only a small quantity of devices is slated for production.
To put this strategy into practice, we employ four principles at our sites: 1. Pull-type production to manufacture the proper number of products at the proper time. 2. Attuned factory equipment perfect for producing limited runs of many different products. 3. Rectification of the product line to eliminate wasteful operations. 4. Constant self-improvement and inspiration to motivate our employees and our organization.
By promulgating these policies and values at our factories, in our sales efforts and management structure, we are optimizing our competitive power, meeting the demands of markets and living up to customers’ expectations. |
