This event and any materials for this event are for electronics OEM professionals working in OEM companies. Even if you cannot attend this event sign up anyway and we'll send you the slide deck.

This narrow scope, in-depth webinar focused on internal EMS manufacturing and financial metrics; ways OEMs can spot potential EMS trouble areas that may cause production and increased cost problems for the OEM or, the EMS partner, or both parties.

This event will help electronics OEM decision makers view EMS provider financial health from a unique perspective understanding industry averages for key metrics EMS providers often talk about to manage themselves against one another, including ways some Wall Street analysts view successful EMS operations as a sign of good EMS executive execution.

For example, having a lot of money tied up in excess EMS inventories could mean OEM customer program product quality is slipping. High inventory can also mean one of your EMS provider partners is losing to an EMS competitor who is building a better-quality product for you. Or some other customers your EMS partner is building for are possibly financially strapped and EMS production costs are out of line. Are sales falling or is production rising too fast? What is healthy EMS provider debt:equity? How are inventory turns determined and what do they really mean? (Read how manufacturers can drive costs out from current product portfolios)

This live, 30-minute event helps OEM decision makers view their EMS partners through a different lense. Speaker Mark Zetter will cover the following topics:

  • Internal EMS provider financial metrics
  • Leveraging EMS financials for better OEM decision-making
  • Why inventory turns matter (or not)
  • What debt:equity says about EMS management execution
  • Financial questions OEMs should ask potential and existing EMS partners
  • ... and more

OEM target audience: Electronic OEM individuals, managers and executives working in OEM hardware companies responsible for proposals, quotes, costing and cost management, vendor and supplier management, purchasing, planning, strategic sourcing, materials and supply chain management, manufacturing operations, finance, corporate strategy and related.
