Commitment and Responsibility
In Orbis Systems, we are committed to operating our business responsibly. Our successful business operations adapt to meet market demands and expectations. In our business areas, we produce value-added services that the customer feels worthy and desirable.
Quality and Sustainability
Leadership sets global business goals twice a year (P12 and P6), which guide the objectives of different functions and processes.
Each employee’s and task-specific goals are aligned with the overall objectives of the organization. We regularly monitor progress against
these goals and steer our operations accordingly.
We understand the regulatory requirements related to our products and the compliance obligations governing our operations. Through continuous development of our products and processes, and by providing appropriate guidance, we ensure that our customers receive products and services that meet their expectations. We recognize our responsibility for the environmental impact of our delivery process and actively engage with our supply chain to ensure that our suppliers take environmental aspects into account in their operations.
As part of our sustainability commitment, we have set a concrete environmental target to reduce our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 50% by the year 2030, using 2019 as the baseline year. We monitor our progress towards this target and continuously develop our operations and supply chain to reduce environmental impacts.
Conflict Minerals Policy
Orbis Systems is deploying its best efforts to follow EU regulations and Section 1502 of the US Dodd-Frank Act regarding Conflict Minerals (tin, gold, tantalum, or tungsten, the 3TG). Orbis Systems’ suppliers acquire and use minerals from multiple sources worldwide. As part of the commitments stated in this Conflict Minerals Policy, it is Orbis Systems’ goal to use tantalum, tin, tungsten and gold in its products that do not directly or indirectly finance or benefit armed groups in the DRC (Democratic Republic of the Congo) or adjoining countries.
In support of this policy, Orbis Systems will:
- Collaborate with its supply chain partners to take reasonable steps to ensure compliance with the law and regulations and to strive towards sourcing parts and materials which are considered “3TG conflict-free”.
- Expect its suppliers to flow down this policy to their suppliers or establish a conflict minerals policy consistent to Orbis Systems’ conflict minerals policy.
- Improve its knowledge of the origin of the 3TG present in its range of products throughout its supply chain to ultimately supply 3TG product that is “3TG conflict-free”.
Orbis Systems does not directly source the gold and tin used in its products from mines, smelters or refiners. Therefore, Orbis Systems relies on the information provided by its direct suppliers, which in turn rely themselves upon their own suppliers, direct and indirect.
