Industrial Manufacturing

Operational Excellence in a Global Environment

Trends in the industrial manufacturing industry towards increased globalization, shorter product lifecycles, and pricing pressure have driven the need for more efficient supply chain management and transformation initiatives such as:

  • Outsourced Manufacturing:
    Companies are outsourcing design and assembly to reduce supply chain operating costs, resulting in a need for increased control over critical processes now being executed by partners.
  • Supplier Collaboration:
    Increased service portfolios, more demanding customers and cost pressures result in a more complex supply chain.This requires tighter integration with partners and automation of processes.
  • Globalization:
    Companies are taking advantage of size and global reach through consolidating functions such procurement across business units or geographies requiring a high degree of business integration
