Overview: The global economy has changed dramatically during the last few years in response to new technological, financial, and political conditions. Today’s companies are struggling to cope with the new economy’s more stringent business and operational conditions including mercurial markets, ever-slimmer margins, highly discerning customers, and heavy dependence on trading partners as a result of outsourcing over the years. Smart companies in manufacturing industries are pursuing various strategies to increase productivity, efficiency, effectiveness, customer loyalty and quality.
