Optimizing the Global Manufacturing Facility Footprint

CRE professionals should understand their companies’ strategy as it relates to the global manufacturing footprint and be prepared to participate in corporate deliberations on optimizing the company’s network of production plants, rationalizing supply chains, mitigating business disruption risks, and preparing location decisions. 

Join this special IAMC – BCI Global Webinar to learn how to contribute to these conversations.

 
Featured Presenter: Rene Buck, CEO, BCI Global

Buck Consultants International (BCI)
Buck Consultants International (BCI) carries out research, advises and implements in the areas of economics, spatial development, real estate, location selection, infrastructure development, transport of goods and supply chain strategy.

To optimize their global manufacturing footprints, BCI Global says companies “need to have a clear global manufacturing strategy, which has to address four questions. The why question is about the drivers behind such a strategy, varying from market pull to technology push. What refers to make-or-buy decisions, balancing the pros and cons of own manufacturing versus CMO strategies. The where question is to identify for an individual company [the] relevant regions in the world. Last but not least is the how question: how to mobilize the company for change.”
