Needless to say we want all our policies, people, and systems to meet our customers' expectations.

Explanation:

The sentence is incorrectly punctuated because there should be a comma separating the phrase Needless to say from the rest of the sentence. In that respect, Needless to say means obviously and is used to give emphasis. Thus, the revised sentence is the following:

Needless to say, we want all our policies, people, and systems to meet our customers' expectations.
