Hilti stands for quality, innovation, and direct customer relationship. With more than 32,000 employees in more than 120 countries, the family-owned Hilti Group supplies the worldwide construction and energy industries with technologically leading products, systems, software, and services with the sole purpose of making construction better. Continuous improvement is implicit in the company purpose and the company has a caring and performance-oriented culture as a strategic foundation. This has allowed Lean activities to grow and develop throughout the company in the last years. At the beginning of 2022, the company’s Lean upskilling program was accredited by the LCS. The program uses the 70-20-10 approach: After a self-learning and training sessions, learners are required to demonstrate knowledge and practical capability delivering continuous improvement projects at different levels. This created a great opportunity to motivate employees to engage in continuous improvement activities and the Global Logistics Organization at Hilti decided to use it to accelerate their lean journey and create value (economic impact, customer experience improvement, CO2 reduction, H&S) for the customer and the business.
