STRATEGY PLANNING

Thinking ahead to
retain competitive edge

Our strategy planning process is influenced by the Vision, Mission and Values of the organisation, along with the strategic direction provided by the Senior Leadership Team. As part of the process, we examine both external and internal business environment and factor in potential risks and opportunities that could disrupt the industry. Materiality assessment provides insights to the changing needs of all our stakeholders.

Our long-term strategies and annual business plans are formulated as an outcome of the integrated strategy planning process. The overall strategy and plans are cascaded down to individual divisions/departments with clearly defined responsibilities across all employee levels.

We aspire to be the most valuable and respected steel company globally by 2030. In pursuit of this goal, we have refreshed our long-term strategies and extended the horizon to 2030. The priority for the next five years is to improve the structural and financial strength of the Company. This will provide the foundation for growth thereafter.
