Introduction
A global audio equipment manufacturer approached JS3 Global to help identify consultants who could facilitate finance and supply chain processes across different locations, including Brazil and South Africa.
The client is a leading name in the audio equipment manufacturing industry, servicing over 25 countries all around the world. To expand their services into Brazil and South Africa amongst other locations, the client required skilled and experienced finance and supply chain consultants who had working knowledge of their target markets.
The client approached JS3 Global to help in their search for experienced, skilled, affordable experts who were able to effectively communicate in the local languages as well as the global project team’s native tongue – English.
Challenges
There were a number of challenges for the JS3 Global team to overcome when identifying the perfect resources for the client, including the requirement for high-level bi-lingual skills. Navigating difficult and nuanced factors such as location-specific tax laws and market activity meant the ideal resources needed to possess exemplary skills in multiple languages.
Furthermore, both the client and their channel partner were unable to provide resources within Brazil and South Africa, meaning the consultants had to take a lead on these projects.
Solution
We quickly and effectively identified bi-lingual, experienced and skilled resources for both the Brazilian and South African markets. Using our extensive network of skilled and experienced ERP professionals from every corner of the globe, we were able to quickly find the perfect solution to the client’s very specific challenges.
This swift action ensured that the client’s project could continue and both sites could go live on time. Utilizing local experts ensured that milestones were met, and potential pitfalls avoided.
Result
As well as hitting the target go-live date, the resources identified by JS3 Global were able to demonstrate their ongoing value to the business. All of the JS3 Global consultants were retained beyond the go-live dates for further projects and initiatives.
Delighted by the performance of the JS3 Global consultants, and the savings made using our extensive resource network, the client has put in further requests for their sites in Denmark, Japan, France and Germany.
