ROBUR Value Chain

ROBUR is the reliable and competent service provider for diverse industries in a wide range of industrial segments. We stand for holistic solutions from planning and realization via installation, operation and maintenance to relocation and decommissioning. We also support our customers in the design of the digital transformation with digital, automation and data insights solutions. Our services make an important contribution more than ever to the politically agreed energy transition.

The diversity of our services is also reflected in the depth of our value chain. Various stages of the value chain are applied in the different companies of our business units. The ROBUR partners may call in other service providers based on demand.

We have systemized our value chain as follows:

We provide our services individually according to customer requirements and primarily on site at our customers’ premises. Depending on the customer’s orders and the needed services, the respective stages of the value chain are applied based on demand.

Sustainability aspects can be found in all stages of our value chain in varying degrees. Generally, we ascribe great importance to all sustainability aspects identified in our materiality analysis for our value adding process; especially because a significant portion of our services help increase and extend the efficiency and life cycle of industrial plants and reduce their emissions. On the other hand, necessary business travel and the associated mobility expenses to our operating locations are the biggest emission drivers within our value chain.

Our services help to increase or extend the efficiency and life cycle of industrial plants. In this way, we actively contribute to emission savings on the part of our customers.

Further resources (e.g., water) as well as other relevant factors (e.g., waste management and recycling) are mainly provided by our customers and clients and are therefore only to a very limited extent under our influence.

For our office and functional buildings, fossil fuels and renewable energies are essential to ensure operation. We use electricity and heating energy responsibly.

For the sustainability-related assessment of our valueadding processes and our sustainable development, these aspects must therefore always be considered in the context of our order volume and the specifics of our customer projects.

Aspects of occupational health and safety, education, and training of our colleagues as well as Compliance compliant behavior are of particular relevance for our direct service provision.

Additionally, the enforcement of labor and social standards is of considerable importance to us and our suppliers. While reviewing sustainability criteria along our value chain, we focused on procurement processes, for which we are developing strategies, processes, and guidelines as part of our supplier management that allow reliable assessment for sustainability criteria. In addition to high quality, reliable deliveries, and competitive prices all ROBUR partners have the goal to ensure compliance with fundamental environmental and social standards throughout our value chain.

Our Stakeholders

We consider our customers, colleagues, investors, suppliers and service providers, workers’ representation, management as well as the general public, to be the most important stakeholder groups.

Our goal is to identify and understand the needs, expectations, and positions of our stakeholders and, whenever possible, take them into account in our corporate decisions.

At the same time, the dialog with our stakeholders helps create understanding for our goals and actions.

We cultivate a regular and primarily personal exchange with our stakeholders.
