WHY WE EXIST

average financial performance and longevity.
We achieve this by deploying skills and resources to bring technology to where it can do the most good and bring benefit to the most people.
HISTORY
The Needham Group was founded by Roger Needham on 22 November 1962 and we remain a family-owned company with Roger’s son, David Needham, the current company Chairman. Being a family company we have a strong set of values by which we conduct our business and we firmly believe in establishing loyal, honest and long term relationships with our partners.
The quality of our products and services is of paramount importance to the success of our company and we have worked hard over many years to ensure that our research, development, manufacturing systems and processes are of the highest standard.
Dedication to innovative, cutting-edge technologies and product quality has enabled us to provide solutions to a wide range of industry and consumer sectors. Through sustained investment in research and development, we continuously develop our range of products, whilst forging new alliances with prospective up-and-coming technology partners to enhance our portfolio.
OUR CORE VALUES
01 /
RELISH
RESPONSIBILITY
02 /
BE CONFIDENT
BE HUMBLE
03 /
BE TRUSTWORTHY
BE COMPASSIONATE
04 /
ALWAYS DO THE
RIGHT THING
This means we have a burning desire to move forwards and succeed. We don’t shy away from responsibility but rather, we relish the prospect of progress and we are tenacious in seeking out opportunities. We are people that are obsessed about learning and growing and reaching outside our comfort zones. We push the people around us to behave the same way.
We strongly believe that humility is not thinking less of yourself, it is thinking of yourself less. Our confidence stems from our collective sense of purpose, from our planning and preparation, from the trust and faith we have in each other’s abilities and from the support structures that we have built around us, at every level in the company. We are ‘realistically optimistic’, ‘glass half
full’ kind of people and we believe that we can succeed with tenacity and hard work.
We put others and the company before ourselves because our compassion creates a desire to help. We mean what we say and say what we mean. We always keep our promises and once we make one, you can count on us to deliver. This means our promises are considered and intentional, yet we have also learned to say no when we suspect that we can’t deliver. We know our strengths and understand our weaknesses. Most importantly, we have trust and faith in our colleagues and we always have each other’s backs.
It’s all about integrity. We are good, honest people always focused on helping those around us, never
violating the deep trust that exists in the relationships we have with our peers and our clients. We do this not
because we seek praise or recognition from them but because it is expected of us and we do it regardless, even though nobody is watching. When this is at our core, the sense of family, belonging and growing together, flourishes exponentially.
