Atlas Copco’s vision is to become and remain First in Mind – First in Choice of our customers and other stakeholders. Our mission is to achieve sustainable, profitable growth. This means that we do everything we can to create lasting results while safeguarding people, profit and the planet.

Our focus areas are complemented by five strategic pillars for growth

People
Attract and develop qualified and motivated employees as well as create equal opportunities for a professional career.

Innovation
Invest in research and development and continuously launch new products and service that increase customers' productivity.

Presence
Increase market presence and penetration, and expand the product and service offering in selected market segments.

Operational excellence
Continuously strive for improved operational performance with an efficient and responsible use of resources - human, natural and capital.

Service
Increase the service offer, perform service for a larger proportion of the products we sell, and thereby give customers peace of mind.

Our core values – interaction, innovation and commitment, reflect how we behave internally and in our relationships with external stakeholders.

Our principle of decentralized responsibility
Atlas Copco is a decentralized Group consisting of independent divisions, organized into four business areas. The main role of a business area is to develop leading technology within its business scope and to follow up on objectives and strategies. This also includes people, environmental and social performance. The divisions are our highest operational entities with their own profit responsibility. They are in charge of product development, manufacturing, marketing and sales. Each business area also has one or more dedicated service divisions. The divisions generally conduct business through local customer centers and designated product companies.
