With a record turnover of 153 million Euro in 2013, MHP can - again - look back on a very successful fiscal year. MHP was, for the first time in its history, able to achieve a globally consolidated turnover of over 150 million Euro. The majority of this was again generated from our consultancy business with customers from the automotive sector – the core business of MHP.
As a future-oriented, attractive employer, a central part of the MHP corporate strategy is to increase the number of members in the MHP family, i.e. our employees, on an ongoing basis as well as acquire highly skilled personnel. The number of employees has continued to increase every year since MHP's foundation in 1996; the number of employees has, in fact, doubled since the start of 2010. At the end of 2013, there were 937 persons employed at MHP (end of 2012: 821) – the 1000th person milestone has, in the meantime, been reached.
Dr. Ralf Hofmann, Chairman of the Executive Board: "We are successfully further developing our company in the right direction, expanding our service range in a targeted manner and opening new locations worldwide. This can be clearly seen in our most important KPIs. In the fiscal year 2013, we significantly further increased our operating profit again and are confident that we will continue this trend in 2014."
The further internationalization of MHP should play an important role in this connection. Last year, MHP opened a new location in Shanghai (China). Another new location was opened at the start of 2014 in Cluj-Napoca (Romania). MHP is currently represented in the international consultancy market with 12 locations in 5 countries (Germany, Switzerland, USA, China and Romania).
MHP has established itself as a leading process supplier on the market with its unique symbiosis of process and IT consultancy. This can be seen from numerous studies, rankings and surveys – with top positions in the rankings of the respected German magazines Wirtschaftswoche, Automobilwoche and automotiveIT – as well as success in prestigious competitions. MHP emerged - amongst other things - as the winner of the "SAP HANA Partner Race". In 2013, MHP was awarded the "Best of Consulting" prize for the third year in a row by the Wirtschaftswoche magazine. On Monday (March 31), MHP received the <link http://www.mhp.com/de/news/detailseite/article/mhp-erhaelt-luenendonk-award/5/ - - "Dieser Link öffnet einen internen Link in diesem Fenster">Business-to-Business-Service-Award 2014</link> in the category "Performance" from a media jury, which consisted of editors-in-chief and business editors from the top German media outlets.
