ARPA'S STRATEGIC GOALS
In 2018, Arpa Equipos Móviles de Campaña celebrated 50 years. Looking to the future, with more projects and motivation than ever, Arpa has become an international benchmark with a solid trajectory, gaining extensive experience along the way and always ensuring the principles and values of its founder, my father, Antonio Arpa Romero. This is the motto that drives us: our designs and solutions aim to provide access to water, food, hygiene, habitability, sanitation, etc. for displaced groups or those in a precarious situation, either due to work reasons or emergencies, catastrophes, conflicts, etc. Always keeping in mind the vocation of service to those who dedicate their lives to helping people: any logistics solution for any operator anywhere in the world.
The main action points of the current strategic plan, which runs until 2020, are based on four key strategic goals: Internationalisation, Quality, Innovation and Sustainability.
INTERNATIONALISATION::
Aware of the current challenges in our society and the international community, Arpa's determination and commitment is to facilitate work in the most adverse conditions: situations of armed conflict, scarcity, famine or natural disasters of all kinds. That is why the company's operating context is international, as these situations cross borders and are likely to affect a very diverse population around the world.
QUALITY:
At ARPA, we are committed to the quality of our products and services. The satisfaction of our clients and users is our goal and that is the only way we know how to operate. Our goal is to focus on Total Quality and Continuous Improvement, which is why we have started to implement the LEAN philosophy in all areas of the company.
INNOVATION:
A key element for carrying out our work in a dynamic and competitive context, ensuring market share. By innovating and developing new designs, ARPA aims to offer an increasing number of benefits to its clients and end users and obtain positive results.
We want to encourage openness to evolution, wanting to do what we do even better based on the needs of our clients while attempting to make a contribution to sustainable social development.
SUSTAINABILITY:
ARPA accepts the challenge and commitment of providing comprehensive solutions for these missions, solutions that take into account respect for the environment and people from the design phase, as well as throughout their life cycle. We feel responsible for contributing not only to the sustainability of the company but also its immediate context and all of our stakeholders, with the firm conviction that we will continue working to create opportunities that allow us to evolve and grow, learning from our experiences and tackling future challenges with enthusiasm.
Our logistics solutions are increasingly focused on helping future generations face these challenges, with our developments and our humble but firm disposition. We will continue setting new goals and challenges for ourselves to keep growing and evolving as a company, a future project and, above all, as individuals.
