Akcoat journey, your works, your goals.
In Veysi Kucuk’s own words…
Akcoat has a great success story as one of the world's leading companies in the coating sector. My goal is to raise this flag higher and take the global leadership.
Our company allocates significant resources to R&D, marketing, and talent management. To support this, we encourage all the colleagues to internalize the corporate values and to recruit candidates who are volunteers to be a part of this success story.
Akcoat’s product portfolio expands gradually by developing new technologies in different fields. All Akcoat’s strategies are shaped around the goals of riveting its global structure and moving it forward.
Project Background
While planning such a comprehensive process like “digitalisation”, which directly affects all the structures and activities of organizations, we aimed to understand where we are in this field with the idea that “what gets measured gets managed”. Afterwards, we began working with Digitopia to seek answers to our questions together with our consultant.
By cultivating a brainstorming environment with the participation of colleagues from all departments, our awareness of digital transformation was maximized. Akcoat determined its digital maturity level objectively by scoring the company thanks to the excellent support and methodology Digitopia provided to Akcoat. This evaluation and the roadmap prepared have been a very valuable guide to Akcoat.
