Webinar: Manufacturing Footprint Strategies for Manufacturers of Industrial Equipment and Machinery

Growing demand for industrial equipment and machinery is driving many companies in the industry to increase manufacturing/sourcing capacity. Pressure on costs, geopolitical uncertainties and last but not least labor market challenges across the globe do not make this an easy exercise. Consolidate manufacturing to rationalize costs? Where to expand manufacturing capacity? At current locations? At new locations with a more favorable labor and tax climate? 

During this webinar BCI Global shares its latest experiences in supporting leading companies in their (European, US, Asian or global) footprint challenges and will give you an update on the latest developments impacting your company’s performance. The webinar will also include practical case studies and examples.

During this webinar you will get answers to the following questions:

• What are the current trends in terms of manufacturing footprint development of industrial companies in Europe, the US, China and/or Asia? Consolidation? Deconsolidation? Differentiation per product/market combination?
• What is the best approach for manufacturing footprint optimization? Which process? Which methodologies? How to analyze scenarios in detail including all relevant drivers?
• What impact can technological development/automation in the production process have on the future footprint strategy?
• How is the labor market pressure impacting footprint and location decisions of industrial companies?
• How to select the optimal location for a new industrial equipment manufacturing plant in Europe, the Americas or APAC?
