Improving company value and resolving management issues to strengthen international competitiveness through business model/product portfolio transformations and supply chain optimization

Electronic components are incorporated in various electronic products and EVs, and a continued global business growth is expected. On the other hand, the electronics industry faces changes at a blinding speed in political and economic circumstances, fast progress in digital technology, and fierce competition in the global market. To expand revenue in this environment, companies are addressing management issues to strengthen their international competitiveness, working to transform their business and product portfolios and optimizing the global supply chain.

ABeam Consulting supports company business transformations. This includes support for business model transformations, optimizing global supply chain management with cutting-edge technology, and strengthening global digital human resources.

Industry Agenda

Operational productivity improvement from cross-company perspective/global supply chain optimization

In addition to global political and economic changes, there have been rapid technological and market changes, such as EV adoption for automobiles, progress in technology like generative AI, and speed improvements in communications through 6G. Responding to these changes requires improving overall optimal operations efficiency that includes R&D, design development, procurement, and other departments. There is also a need to improve productivity through resilient supply chains that monitor global political and geographical risks.

It is essential to build optimal supply chains that cross borders to deploy globally. This is made possible by utilizing global supply chain data, clarifying management and business issues based on analysis that incorporates ESG perspectives, developing sustainable and optimal global supply chain strategies, and strategy execution.

Business/product portfolio transformation

Recent rapid digitalization has increased the number of high-performance electronic installation components required for advanced devices. Electronic component companies also have requirements for ongoing product cost reductions. To resolve market materiality, companies have been urged to advance innovation to resolve social issues with their company’s core technology, while continuing to sell existing electronic components. This market situation requires a shift to areas with continuous growth. Companies must transform from past business models, portfolios, and new product development processes while utilizing existing resources.

Companies must strengthen business portfolio management, develop new business concepts, construct new operations and systems, and expand into global markets. They are required to undergo transformations to generate new growth fields.

Human resource portfolio management

Changes in political and economic circumstances has forced sudden changes in the market, such as efforts to strengthen digitalization and sustainability. To face these changes, companies must secure and train digital human resources and integrate them into existing resources. Human resource investment is not a short-term endeavor. It may require changing the organizational customs or culture of the company. Businesses and operational departments exposed to intense global competition must develop innovative new products and software that are directly linked to solving social problems rather than re-creating the products of the past. They must improve operational efficiency and secure human resources who can lead business and operational transformations through technology such as AI.

Companies must transform based on people, organization, and culture. This is not limited to resolving issues of existing HR operation and systems, but includes strategy proposals for human resource portfolio transformations that include business/operations departments, strengthening employee engagement, and training support for the next generation of management.

Where ABeam Stands Out

  • “Comprehensive consulting capabilities” in the digital era

    ABeam Consulting utilizes the expertise of professionals in industries and services beyond the electronic component industry, its expert knowledge, track record, capabilities, and cutting-edge technology such as AI to extract the potential from data held by companies. We clarify core issues and support company transformations and company value improvements by handling everything from strategy development to IT.

  • Promoting global hybrid transformation

    In the electronic component industry, there is a demand for agile responses to global market fluctuations. ABeam Consulting supports client transformations by utilizing the strengths of a Japan/Asia-based consulting firm, global networks and our consulting track record with multi-national corporations. We respect the company’s values and business customs while considering their global strategy. Our strength lies in our ability to execute strategies and provide actionable proposals that fit each region.

  • Value generation as a co-creation partner and achieving company transformations

    The environment surrounding society and business is changing at a blinding speed. The electronic component industry must undergo transformation while accounting for a long-term perspective.

We train human resources in collaboration with clients and provide support based on the company and organizational network, human resources, and knowledge centered around technology, without being restrained by existing frameworks.
