Description
The objective of the promoter is to establish a profitable operation based on engineering and manufacturing of induction heating equipment which contribute to use of electric energy in industrial heating processes and therefore reduce polluting emissions from alternative heating methods like gas heating. The use of induction heating also results in improved work environment due to less radiant heating and to increase output and productivity. The aim of project is to professionalize the promoter's organization, management and employees by organizational development programs, implementation of IT-tools for efficient operations and some investments in equipment and machinery for quality and productivity improvement. The project activities will result in increased competence among employees and ability to serve customers according to their needs and expectations.
