Strategic project management whitepaper launched
ASCO Numatics has launched a new whitepaper that describes how OEM’s and end users can tackle their resource and skills shortages in the process automation area : “Outsource to thrive: how strategic project management in 2014 can assist on the path to growth.” The paper offers valuable insights for the engineering industry, including effective strategies to meet economic imperatives while retaining essential levels of engineering expertise and quality.
“The skills shortage represents one of the greatest challenges to growth across Europe,” says John Weet, Marketing Manager for the ASCO and Numatics range of fluid automation products. “The engineering industry is at the heart of the impending crisis – and is already fighting to retain margins in the face of increasing regulatory and financial pressures.”
The whitepaper explores potential solutions to this widespread problem – including assessing the pros and cons of reducing spend on components, and the merits of outsourcing.
“When it comes to specifying components, cheap substitutions can only be relied upon to be a false economy,” warns John. “Fortunately, outsourcing or part-outsourcing to trusted suppliers can bring peace of mind alongside compelling time and cost efficiencies – not to mention freeing up precious internal resource. Pre-assembled parts enable businesses to focus skilled staff on project delivery and meeting deadlines.”
ASCO Numatics provides engineered solutions to its customers, to meet the increasing demand for complete valve control and fluid automation systems.
By allowing customers to specify complex valve controls and fluid automation systems – including a combination of one or more products and third party equipment fully assembled, certified and ready for use – ASCO Numatics is able to provide a faster, easier and cheaper approach to many in-house system builds.
