Our Services
The high-tech industry is currently facing various supply chain challenges.
These challenges include disrupted supplier networks, longer lead times, and uncertainty in the supply from Asia. In addition, there is a growing need for more efficient and globally coordinated operations. Consumer electronics companies, due to shorter product lifecycles, are dealing with increased complexity in their products and services. They also face challenges related to the proliferation of different types of spares. Finding cost-competitive suppliers is a constant struggle for these companies, as profit margins continue to decline.
On the other hand, consumer durables manufacturers have to manage two supply chains simultaneously. They rely on local suppliers for bulky components and sub-assemblies, while sourcing less bulky parts from low-cost geographies.
In the telecom and networking equipment market, companies are concerned about protecting their intellectual property when selecting suppliers. This often leads to sub-optimal choices, as the focus on IP protection can compromise the resilience of the supply chain.
