NEA is constantly innovating to create capacity and achieve process excellence. As the demand for environmental services rises, it is essential to shift towards a pro-enterprise mindset through innovative solutions across regulations and practices, to ensure a safe and healthy environment for all employees.
Driving Innovation Excellence in NEA
To cultivate and sustain an innovation-driven culture, NEA has an innovation framework based on the tenets of organisation development and behavioural sciences. The framework pulls together six levers to drive innovation excellence for value creation.
Recognising Innovative Efforts
Encouraging innovation is our way of inspiring staff to keep thinking out of the box. In 2021, 32 NEA innovation awards were presented to recognise individuals and project teams for their innovative spirit and solutions.
NEA was also awarded three certificates – two Par Excellence and one Excellence – at the International Convention on Quality Control Circles, for optimising the deployment of safe distancing officers, innovating a microscope for officers to identify mosquito species on the field, and reducing the time required to track inspections at construction sites. These awards affirm our commitment to innovation, and reflect our innovation-driven culture.
