Perfect Harmony – Crescendo!
Seamless system solutions and companies with an innate learning culture are the
forces that will shape the future.
The companies of the HARTING Technology Group make their specific contributions within the framework of a finelytuned
organization, similar to the different instruments in a symphony orchestra. To deliver the level of performance
which is needed to achieve and maintain success, the companies have to evolve into adaptive systems.
There are good reasons why large “ensembles” like the
Berlin Symphony Orchestra and the London Symphony
Orchestra have retained their distinguished musical
reputations for so many years. Outstanding musicians, the
world’s best conductors, attractive repertoires and detailed
coordination between all of the contributors are part of the
story. The other key factor is the constant regeneration of
these orchestras which learn from their experiences and
continue to evolve.
This level of harmony is the outcome of a long development
process which involves continuous fine tuning of every
individual element. The goal is to ensure that a change
in any one element triggers changes throughout the
entire system. These systems perform at the highest level,
because overall success is built on the success of the
constituent parts. When one benefits, everyone benefits.
A high-tech company like HARTING is no different. In other
words, creativity is not the result of chaos. Instead, it is the
result of perfect organization and adaptive systems that
continue to improve because they want to improve.
Today’s technology companies operate in a rapidly
changing environment, and these companies themselves
contribute to the dynamics of the market by developing
new solutions, new applications, new approaches and
new technologies. Companies like HARTING have rapidly
expanded their core competencies and have continued to
develop logical extensions to their portfolios. They are the
pace setters, and they are equally adept at reacting quickly
and skillfully to events on the ground. Expansion of our
know-how and expertise is not a linear process. It follows
a logical yet complex learning curve. The expertise of the
entire company increases with each new solution that
HARTING develops in house. Every new application, every
new requirement that we are able to meet and every new
approach we take stimulates new development, ideas and
potential solutions for other applications that HARTING is
also actively addressing.
This is the basis for the HARTING success story and it has
also given us core expertise which enables us to address
and meet highly complex customer requirements. HARTING
currently has customers in the mechanical engineering
industry and the entire manufacturing industry, including
producers of automotive, medical and energy systems.
HARTING is involved in the entire spectrum of production
technology, and the company’s communications,
connectivity and production technologies are closely
related and fully compatible. To return to the musical
metaphor, these technologies sound a harmonious cord.
A harmonious melody in music is the same as a finelytuned
and well-coordinated organization in a technology
company. 3
