Significant Strategy
Competitive differentiation requires constant vigilance. It helps a lot to be first, which MultiTech has been able to do more frequently in the past few years. It also requires an intimate knowledge of the customer set and consideration of the voice of the customer in everything they do. Finally, it is important to acknowledge what are the differentiators and who are the competition. The company believes sometimes, the solution offered is not the best fit, in such situations pointing those customers to a more suitable vendor promotes trust and pays off in the end.
Committed to the Excellence
MultiTech has the experience of more than 45 years which illustrate its commitment towards its clients and services. The company has acquired partnership with those who are key players in the business sectors they serve. According to Stefan “Getting something started is not the easy part; it takes lots of work. But making it stay so that you’re viable year after year, you have to be willing to invest. That means you have to take time and talent of your own and others and make it so you can sustain the “genes” you already had. Companies need somebody watching out for all that stuff to make sure the same energy is applied for sustaining that went into starting a business. If you put a process together, you have to make sure it is used on a daily basis. That way, as technology changes, you are prepared to move with it.”
With a global footprint, MultiTech has a team of 200 people today. It has operations, which includes manufacturing, supply chain, program management, finance and legal, and IT. Of course, the engineering and innovation organization is absolutely critical to the success, as it has always been an engineering driven organization. Today, the sales and marketing teams are gaining prominence; Stefan thinks it reflects the technology transition in the time. Cutting-edge technologies are used to drive its own growth. But in a world which awash with technology solutions of all sorts, really understanding and responding to the customer is critical in the future. The team will continue to fine tune the organization, as Stefan suggests one must do for the kind of sustainability everyone has enjoyed and things are working well. He feels fortunate to have an award-winning, well respected leadership team with great people on the front line who are making things happen.
