Business Operations

SJW Consulting can help clients address cost issues by improving efficiencies during product definition, development and manufacturing, leveraging best in class outsource design and manufacturing partners. Outsource manufacturing is not just lowering labor costs, there are many other considerations such as supply chain, shipping and reverse logistics, that need to be factored into the total costs and business strategy for outsourcing.

We have extensive experience in working with some of the world's largest computer OEMs and ODMs. We can offer this valuable working knowledge and perspective in helping clients to evaluate and develop the right manufacturing outsourcing strategy and partnerships.

One of the major challenges in working with Contract Manufacturing and ODM partners in Asia are the language and the culture. Our bilingual (English and Mandarin) consultants have both technical and cultural skills to help manage programs and facilitate the communication between partners in Asia and the U.S. Having these resources available locally to clients offers tremendous benefit in enhancing the communications and working efficiencies, results in saving customer valuable time and costs.
