Industrial Manufacturing, Energy & Utilities

The internationalisation of businesses is particularly prevalent in manufacturing industry, where the increased cost of production in more advanced countries, together with the globalisation of the raw materials markets, has led to a re-engineering of the supply chain. In addition, emerging markets creating new demand for even the most traditional industrial products, presents a new challenge. Industrial companies that have survived the “industrial earthquake” of the last decade are those who succeeded in significantly changing their organisations; relocating production facilities; outsourcing non-core activities; adapting to new business cycles; improving their supply chains; and opening new markets.

After years where standardisation, simplification, cost reduction, etc. dominated the minds of senior executives, now the challenge has moved on to a different level. The companies who will succeed in the next decade must be able to “Think Globally, Act Locally”.
