Manufacturing

The manufacturing industry continues to become more competitive, fueled by increasing globalization. Several factors will continue to pressure industry dynamics and competitiveness including:

• The growing need for companies to acquire new technologies to remain competitive and lower their time-to-market, in turn driving the need to control R and D costs through increased outsourcing.
• Global price competitiveness, forcing manufacturers to transfer production overseas in search of lower wages and a more ideal tax structure.
• A strong acquisition environment, driven by company strategies to utilize economies of scale while taking advantage of strong capital markets.
• Rising raw material costs as demand for products increases and resources become more scarce.
• An emphasis on consolidation as companies focus on their core business strategies while outsourcing or divesting non-core processes.
• Decreasing employment numbers due to efficiencies provided by advancing technology.

In such a dynamic environment, is your company looking for growth, liquidity, or seeking to take advantage of these trends through strategic acquisitions or divestitures? We can help.
