Operational Excellence
Operational excellence is not something separate from our business; it is how we must run our business to achieve our vision of success.
As a business and as a member of our communities, Molycorp is committed to creating superior value for our customers, partners, employees and the communities in which we operate. To succeed, we must achieve world-class performance.
A critical driver for Molycorp’s business success is operational excellence (OE). Operational excellence is defined as “the systematic management of safety, health, environment, reliability and efficiency to achieve world-class performance.”
To achieve and sustain high levels of performance, we must develop a culture where everyone believes that all incidents are preventable and that “zero incidents” is possible.
At Molycorp all of our work is guided by two key principles:
- We Do It Safely or Not At All
- We Always have Time To Do It Right
In addition, our Tenets of Operation define how we operate and guide our decision making.
