“PSM provided professional coaching support and a valued contribution to the development of the program within our product division” - VP Strategy & Planning, Philips Domestic Appliances
In the last twenty years technological innovation, market changes, and the migration of manufacturing to the East have been transforming the Electronics industry beyond recognition. PSM has been working extensively with leading companies in the Sector ever since its inception. Togetherwith our insight in the issues the industry faces and our leading edge thinking, developed over this period, our clients respect and appreciate our pragmatic, 'hands on' approach to strategic and operational support.
PSM’s experience in working within the General Manufacturing Sector spans the entire value chain from primary materials through to component and final product assembly for a broad range of subsectors. In numerous assignments, we have helped our clients formulate and deliver their strategic objectives in an environment where economic uncertainty, increasing competitive pressures and the growing use of decentralised support functions have become the norm. Throughout these engagements, PSM has been influential in ensuring our clients are best positioned to tackle the next challenge to emerge.
Globalization and margin erosion have been forcing companies in the Chemicals industry relentlessly to pursue efficiency improvements. PSM's track record in this sector, built up over many successful engagements, shows how we have helped our clients realize breakthroughs in quality, cost and service and improve logistics and supply chain performance on a global basis, by applying best practices in areas such as product rationalisation following acquisition/mergers, or leading performance improvement and process optimisation using traditional lean/six sigma techniques.
Most organisations in the sector understand the need to improve operational and non-operational performance without compromising customer satisfaction or introducing additional business and commercial risk. Traditionally financial services are comparatively risk-averse, and increasing regulation has fuelled this characteristic. PSM recognise the needs of organisations in this Sector and work with them to deliver balanced and safe improvement programmes. External support from experienced practitioners is valued, particularly where the skill to structure and deliver a major programme is not second nature in their own organisation.
