By focusing on these, NCC is well positioned to continue delivering value to shareholders and other stakeholders, while contributing to sustainable societal development.
Achieving NCC's strategic goals requires a culture with consistent and clear behaviors that create the right conditions within the company and make it possible to achieve our business goals.
NCC generates large amounts of data, and effective knowledge sharing requires structured and easily accessible information. This enables better utilization of the group's collective knowledge, making data-informed decisions, and thereby increasing customer value, productivity, and competitiveness.
A modern and future-proof IT environment to enable efficient work and increased digitalization.
NCC aims to be a leader in expertise within the construction process. This requires NCC to attract, retain, and develop employees and continuously sharpen our skills in key knowledge areas.
By integrating procurement and supply chains into NCC's projects, we can maximize supplier expertise, improve procurement processes, and optimize resource utilization. This strengthens collaboration, increases efficiency, and ensures high-quality deliveries on time and within budget.
Managing project costs effectively from start to finish is crucial for delivering value to customers and creating long term competitiveness. This requires a comprehensive understanding of customer value, careful planning, good risk management, and clear cost control.
NCC is committed to creating value for its customers – from early phase to completion. To maximize this value for the customer, it is crucial to become involved in the construction process as early as possible. Customer needs vary depending on area and region, and NCC meets customer requirements by adapting sales and tendering processes to the local market, while these are supported at a central level through training and experience sharing.
