What We Do & How We Help

Under a non-disclosure agreement we execute with you, we start at the beginning to be sure we know your company thoroughly. Beyond the initial basic questions that define who you are and what the state of your business is, we spend considerable time on the intricacies of your complex answers to many deeper questions:

• Where do you want to be?
• Why do you want to be there?
• How do you think your market is evolving?
• What leads you to think so?
• Where and how do you manufacture today?
• Who is in your supply chain, and how and why were they selected?
• Have your supply chain expectations changed?
• Have your suppliers shown an ability to respond to changes in ways that add value to the supply chain process?
• How is your market evolving and changing?
• How is demand for what you do changing from a geographical perspective?
• How is what you do changing to meet evolving geographical market demands?
• How scalable are your current manufacturing operations?
• Does your manufacturing plan fit your evolving business plan seamlessly – around the world?

Scalability by itself doesn't mean much. Scalability and versatility in an era of rapid change and intense competitive pressures means everything, provided it is invariably accompanied by consistently high quality results.

GOS focuses on delivering quality, scalability, versatility, consistency, and dependability in all your evolving global manufacturing operations.

The strategies we develop are always designed with effective scalability in mind. They apply to every key area: Manufacturing Process Optimization, Evaluating and Aligning Core Business Processes, Supply Chain Optimization, Ensuring Scalable Strategies, and many others.

Making the right decision on your future direction presupposes that you have the full body of knowledge you need to know where you are and to know where you must go (not necessarily the same as where you'd like to go).

We know what questions must be asked and what areas of knowledge your answers must encompass to reach accurate conclusions about what you must do to get where you want to go.

"We want to offshore our manufacturing," many EVPs and CEOs have told us, "but we need you to tell us: China, Mexico, or Eastern Europe?

Picking a nation for off-shoring is orders of magnitude different (and more difficult) than picking an appetizer. It isn’t what you like that counts, it's what will work for your company tomorrow, when off-shoring is implemented and your market and products have evolved.

GOS gets in bed with your business to learn everything about you, your customers, where your market is going, and where you need to be to achieve the results you have a right to expect. We help you develop and implement manufacturing strategies that not only put you ahead in today's marketplace, but also position you for success in the key markets you will be serving tomorrow.

There is no single right answer to the question of China, Mexico, or Eastern Europe: the only answer that matters is the right answer for your company. We'll not only find that answer, we'll work with you step by step to implement it successfully.
