Electronic Business is featuring an article entitled “Inside the mind of the OEM.” The article features research from Venture Outsource.
The article states that “about 90 percent of OEMs that currently outsource rank the importance of lean between somewhat and very important when it comes to choosing an EMS or ODM partner.”
Given that OEMs are very focused on satisfying demand in the most cost effective way, the importance they place on lean makes sense. Being pull or demand-driven is a key to meeting the business objectives of an OEM.
