Manufacturing Footprint Optimization (MFO) is a proven approach for achieving a step-change in cost reduction across a company’s manufacturing network. It addresses the fundamental “What should be made, where?” question to maximize value. As companies are under tremendous pressure to optimize their manufacturing networks, requirements for cost reduction and service levels have never been higher.
