Based on the results of quality and efficiency diagnostics of business processes in 2024, Kemerovo Azot became one of 12 winners of the government award in the field of quality. It should be noted that enterprises from 70 constituent entities of the Russian Federation submitted applications for the competition. Azot KAO for the first time claimed its right to receive the Russian Government Quality Award. The management of the enterprise prepared a voluminous report showing all the measures implemented at the plant, aimed at improving the efficiency of processes, satisfaction of all stakeholders: customers, employees, suppliers. The document was approved by the commission, so Azot went to the in-person evaluation. The experts of the Russian Government Award, who conducted it directly on the territory of the enterprise, were personally convinced of the reliability of the facts stated in the report.
According to the results of the in-person assessment, Azot KAO scored 683 points according to such criteria as leadership, policy and strategy, personnel, partnership, products, services and became the winner of the Award in the nomination ‘Organisations with more than 1000 employees’. It should be noted that the plant turned out to be the only large enterprise-winner from Kuzbass in the history of the competition.
For Azot KAO, the Award is not only a prestigious victory. The experts of the commission made a comprehensive assessment of the company's activities and issued recommendations on the best practices for further improvement of the management system.
-We accept the title of laureate with pride, joy and responsibility, we will continue to try to be an example for many and learn from the best! As debutants, we have gained tremendous experience, received a lot of useful recommendations, saw new ways to improve and develop. Now it is important not only to keep this height, but also to apply all the knowledge gained correctly. It is especially pleasant that the word ‘quality’ in the name of the Award is not only about the products manufactured by our enterprise, but also about the whole system of production processes. That's why this award is an objective and important assessment of both the plant and each Azot employee, who approaches their work responsibly, professionally and with heart every day! I express my great gratitude to all our thousands of employees, who rightfully deserve such a high award for their labour activity! - said Andrey Vishnevsky, CEO of Azot KAO.
