Customer Service Strategy
|
Novatek always regards customers as the most important strategic partners. Regardless of product development, design support, product promotion and sales, and support for mass production, we follow the requirements of the ISO 9001 Quality Management System and conduct process-oriented monitoring and evaluation to try our best to meet customer needs and expectations. We also value customer confidentiality and information protection. In 2022, no complaints about privacy violations from customers have been reported. Novatek believes that the only way to achieve maximum partner’s co-prosperity is to think from customers’ perspectives and to solve problems for customers based on their needs. |
|
For in-depth understanding of customer needs and promoting the interaction and information exchange with customers, we conduct customer satisfaction survey periodically in addition to the weekly and monthly visits and meetings with key customers. The questionnaire surveys grant us an in-depth understanding of customer needs and improve the quality of services and collaboration to ensure that customer needs are properly handled and fulfilled. Furthermore, we also provide localized services to key customers (such as dispatching service personnel to China, Japan, etc.), helping customers solve their problems immediately, accelerating new product development for customers and providing them with better technical support services. Novatek acts as a strong support for our customers to create a co-prosperity partnership.

Sustainable Supply Chain Management Forum
In 2022, Novatek held its first "Sustainable Supply Chain Management Forum", which was conducted virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This event brought together important representatives from our supply chain partners, including wafer manufacturing, packaging, and testing companies from home and abroad. This year's theme was climate change, and experts of suppliers were invited to share global carbon reduction trends, waste reduction, and circular economy achievements. Through this forum, Novatek expressed sincere gratitude to our supplier partners and presented the ESG Excellent Supply Chain Award to recognize suppliers' efforts in sustainable action. We also communicated the requirements of the "Novatek Supplier Code of Conduct" and worked together with our supply chain to promote greenhouse gas inventory and green operation targets (annual electricity savings rate≧1% compared to the previous year; zero production downtime days due to water shortage). A total of 70 participants attended the forum, serving as the exchange and learning platform for supplier partners. In the future, we will continue to focus on energy conservation, carbon reduction, environmental protection, pollution prevention, and circular economy issues. We hope to deepen supply chain competitiveness through this forum and work together with suppliers towards the ultimate goal of net-zero emissions and sustainable operations, creating a green and sustainable environment.
Supplier Sustainability Risk Assessment
To gain insights into the current situation of suppliers, Novatek has not only followed the “Responsible Business Alliance (RBA) Code of Conduct”, but also required its suppliers to take the “self-assessment questionnaire for sustainability management”, covering five major areas of labor rights protection, occupational safety, environmental protection, compliance with ethical requirements and management systems. The assessments are used to identify the compliance with the “Responsible Business Alliance (RBA) Code of Conduct” and evaluate its sustainability risks. In 2022, a total of 45 suppliers responded to the sustainability management questionnaire, with a response rate of 100%, and the suppliers’ scores of the “self-assessment questionnaire for sustainability management” were all above 87 points. In addition to the self-assessment scores, Novatek also reviewed the suppliers’ responses. If there are incomplete responses to individual items or documents that require additional supporting evidence, the suppliers are requested to provide explanations in regular meetings to grasp the risks of suppliers. Among them, 8 suppliers have accepted the RBA-verified audit process (VAP) and have corrected the deficiencies during the audit process.
Supplier Code of Conduct
Novatek pays attention to international sustainable development issues and believes that suppliers need to have a certain system to fulfill corporate social responsibility. Therefore, in 2022, based on the "Responsible Business Alliance Code of Conduct," Novatek formulated the "Novatek Supplier Code of Conduct" and required suppliers to comply with and sign it. In addition, new suppliers must also sign the Supplier Code of Conduct to ensure that they understand and agree to comply with it before they can qualify for cooperation. In 2022, a total of 45 suppliers completed the signing, with a signing rate of 100%.
Responsible Minerals Management Performance
In 2022, Novatek surveyed a total of 28 suppliers related to manufacturing and packaging services. According to the survey results, 126 smelters have been identified, covering 27 countries. 100% of the suppliers adopted RMI (Responsible Minerals Initiative) approved smelters to provide products that meet the requirements.
