"If you want different results, do not do the same". A sentence from Albert Einstein addressed by Antonio Cebrián, marketing director of DS Smith Tecnicarton, to more than one hundred attendees to his presentation in the environment of the 6th Symposium ISTA - European Packaging Seminar, held in the facilities of the technological center ITENE Between 7 and 9 March.
In his speech “Innovation Management Process”, Cebrián revealed how a source of ideas for innovation is the resolution of the problems that arise in the day-to-day business. Thus the origin of the innovation is to offer response to quality incidents, logistics problems, lack of supply, quarantine, errors in deliveries, delays or lack of space in factories, among others.
In the case of Tecnicarton, the ideas that arise from the problems that customers have can be transformed into solutions thanks to the proper management.
For this, Tecnicarton tells, according to Antonio Cebrián to the attendees, the CEDI - Strategic Committee for Development and Innovation – is formed by members of the various departments of the company and whose objective is to promote ideas and transform them into real innovation projects and Objectively realizable. This committee has the mission to evaluate each of the ideas that are raised and prioritize them.
Thanks to this committee, the needs expressed by the clients are evaluated and a solution is offered with a global perspective.
According to Antonio Cebrián, "the fact that all departments participate, allows us to offer an integral solution to the customer that results in a reduction of costs, an optimized product or better packaging of their packaging."
Cebrián insisted on the multi-material nature of his proposals and allows them to offer complete solutions to solve any problems.
