Globalization. Complex Supply Chains. Rapid Movement of Product.

The manufacturing environment presents unique challenges
to maintaining effective oversight and accountability.

    • Globalization places manufacturing plants       continents away from their corporate       headquarters, translating into better       margins but also a loss of control.

    • The supply chain ecosystem is       increasingly characterized by multiple       levels of subcontracting and of inventory       systems. Complexity in a business       environment increases its vulnerability to         manipulation by those who understand it       best.
 

    • Just-in-Time systems, with their rapid-fire       distribution of large amounts of product,       place a premium on speed, sometimes at       the expense of effective internal controls.
