To integrate stewardship into every aspect of our business, it is not enough to have world-class programs targeting governance, compliance, ethics, workplace safety, employee wellness, inclusion and environmental responsibility. We must also embrace the values of stewardship in our fundamental approach to product design and manufacturing processes. Raytheon’s engineering culture is not only strongly aligned with these values, but exceptionally well-equipped to support them. From Engineering, Technology and Research to Operations and Performance Excellence, we work aggressively at every organizational level to improve our products and processes. Senior management is directly charged with implementing Raytheon’s stewardship programs. Sophisticated and time-tested internal processes such as Raytheon Six Sigma™ drive actions throughout the organization and in relation to suppliers and customers. The result is a continual improvement in total product performance, including environmental performance and the other aspects of stewardship responsibility.
