Electronics Outsourcing Industry Research Subscription Provides Scorecards Which Are Deemed a Useful Tool in Assessing EMS and ODM Performance at a Detailed Level.DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c52582) has announced the addition of Electronics Outsourcing Industry Research Subscription to their offering. 5-Year Forecast for Electronics Outsourcing (EMS & ODM (Original Design Manufacturer) A contract manufacturer that uses its own designs and intellectual property (IP). See contract manufacturer. ) Conducted annually since 1990, the 5-Year Forecast predicts global electronics industry manufacturing and outsourcing trends. To gather the data for this study, each year analysts conduct more than 1,000 questionnaire-based telephone interviews with industry executives and managers who are responsible for using, providing, and/or serving the electronics outsourcing industry. This type of research is expensive to conduct, time-consuming and labor intensive Labor Intensive A process or industry that requires large amounts of human effort to produce goods. Notes: A good example is the hospitality industry (hotels, restaurants, etc), they are considered to be very people-oriented. See also: Capital Intensive, Trading Dollars . But in the fast-paced, capital intensive, high risk world of high technology, clients rely heavily not only on their forecasting methodology to produce data available no where else, but also on TFI TFI Tobacco Free Initiative (World Health Organization) TFI The Franklin Institute (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) TFI The Fertilizer Institute TFI Technology Futures, Inc. economists' unique insight and interpretation of the data. Clients base critical business decisions on these data, insights, and recommendations. Annual Productivity Benchmarking (EMS & ODM) In the 2006 version of this annual study, TFI studied the 2005 financial results of 43 public and private EMS providers and 91 public ODM companies around the world. The sample consisted of a broad range of companies from the Fortune 500 global leaders to the smaller regional and local companies. TFI included both privately held and public EMS providers and public ODM companies in the sample. To understand both industries' performance at a more detailed level, the author has analyzed the companies at both an industry level and in four size category levels. These size categories are reflective of different business structures and models of the players within each size category. Since there is variance among all the players in each size category, the report includes a set of scorecards in Exhibits One through Ten at the end of this report to provide more granular granular /gran·u·lar/ (gran´u-lar) made up of or marked by presence of granules or grains. gran·u·lar adj. 1. Composed or appearing to be composed of granules or grains. 2. metrics metrics Managed care A popular term for standards by which the quality of a product, service, or outcome of a particular form of Pt management is evaluated. See TQM. information about the companies in the sample. These scorecards are a useful tool in assessing EMS and ODM performance at a detailed level. EMS/ODM Report Card and Buyers Guide In 2005, TFI conducted a landmark study unlike any ever done in the electronics contract manufacturing industry. Analysts interviewed 129 outsourcing managers and executives around the world (equally divided between Asia, the Americas, and Europe), asking each to offer detailed qualitative and quantitative information on their personal experiences with specific electronic contract manufacturers. Initially conceived as a Sponsored Research project and funded by a consortium of six clients, this study was so well received that it has now been converted to an annual study.
