Mid-term strategy
Our mid-term strategy is the roadmap for profitable growth and for raising earnings to a top level in the international mechanical and plant engineering sector. The new strategy is linked to medium-term targets for four key indicators:
- High profitability: The EBIT margin is to widen gradually to at least 8%.
- Sales growth: +2 to 3% p.a.
- Attractive return on capital: ROCE at least 25%
- Increase in the proportion of service business: Service business with its larger margins is to account for up to 30% of Group sales.
In order to achieve our goals and expand our leading position in the world market, we are continuing to push ahead with digitalization (digital@DÜRR) as a central strategic element. In addition, we are positioning ourselves to optimum effect in four strategic fields: global presence, innovation, efficiency, lifecycle services. We have also defined four enablers, i.e. supporting functions that are particularly important for the successful implementation of our strategy: sustainability, mergers & acquisitions, finance organization and people development.
