Overview: Strategically positioning assets is one of the most daunting tasks confronting a company looking to grow, move or start-up. Adopting a location strategy that incorporates key business issues, financial considerations, and management vision is critical to answering these questions correctly and ultimately choosing the right location for a facility.
