SIAEC launches ‘Continuous Improvement Journey’

SIA Engineering Company (SIAEC) announced it will be launching its Continuous Improvement journey, following the successful conclusion of its two-year Transformation Phase 2 programme. With the tagline “Power Up Towards Excellence”, the spirit of Continuous Improvement will be imbued in the corporate DNA as part of SIAEC’s work culture. The journey for Continuous Improvement builds on the success of Transformation Phase 2, which started in January 2021. Transformation Phase 2 had strengthened the company’s capabilities, created value for key stakeholders and boosted competitiveness. Over 150 initiatives were implemented across the company, resulting in increased productivity and throughput, as well as achieving reduced turnaround time and operating costs. Leveraging the strong foundation laid in Transformation Phase 2, SIAEC will continue to press ahead with Lean and Digitalisation by strengthening its Lean community and in-house digital units. The company will also step-up investments in its workforce by upskilling and equipping them with the necessary skillsets and knowledge to excel in their roles. In addition, SIAEC will enhance the career progression paths of its technicians and engineers by sharpening their core competencies to meet evolving requirements. This also serves to contribute toward employee experience and professional growth. “To unlock the full potential of our staff, it is imperative for us to build a robust and sustainable culture of continuous improvement. SIAEC will adopt a more ground-up approach, where leaders will promote collaboration and adopt a ‘test & learn’ mindset. We will also work on cultivating a culture of ownership and commitment, empowering our staff to take the initiative and find effective solutions in their daily work. Additionally, we aim to nurture an environment where providing suggestions for improvement will be a norm and staff will continuously look for opportunities to learn and grow,” said SIAEC Chief Executive Officer Ng Chin Hwee.
