Global Consulting and Research for Outsourcing and the Environment
I want to share this short radio interview on what it takes for a technology company to get ahead of the pack environmentally and benefit financially from doing so. Peter Polgar and I were interviewed by Kevin Carroll of the San Diego AeA (American Electronics Association). We also discuss the 3 biggest mistakes technology companies can make when going green. I am speaking at the AeA Operations Roundtable tomorrow (May 14th) on the topic, “Environmental Sustainability from an Operations Perspective: Your Risks, Responsibilities, and Rewards.”
Midmarket high-tech manufacturers face intense competition globally - and that means it is critical to maximize offshoring and outsourcing tactics to cut costs, increase efficiency, and maintain competitive advantage.
Learn how a successful, high growth innovator, ARUBA NETWORKS, is achieving operational excellence in this challenging environment.
View this panel presentation including ARUBA Networks, SAP, and TFI as they discuss key outsource manufacturing strategies.
View this vital Webcast for insight into how Aruba Networks relies on strategic partners to build, move, inventory, and design key products and components. The company’s primary focus is on execution, on-time delivery to customers, product cost, product quality, and inventory. Objectives like these are even more challenging for high-growth midmarket enterprises when resources are scarce and customer service is critical.
The primary driver for Aruba Networks’ decision to select SAP software is to scale and grow its business, have immediate access to accurate data, real-time business processes, and improved connectivity to suppliers.
