MES Inc.’s services have become more valuable than ever as mass customization sweeps through the manufacturing world. “Mass customization has been an irreversible trend across most of the industries,” says MES President and founder Hiten Shah. “Most of the OEMs in construction, trucking, agriculture and auto¬motive industries have had to come up with an explosion of new products and product versions,” usually referred to as ‘long tail’ products. “This complexity has led to supply chain directors struggling with a mix of components which have short life cycle, lower volumes and unpredictable demand patterns.” MES provides supply chain solutions for this complex mix of components, which include castings, machined parts, forgings, plastic, rubber parts and small sub-assemblies. “We reduce our customers’ cost, time-to-market, quality and inventory levels for this high-mix variety of products and components,” Mr. Shah reports. “Normally, with our help, our customers will reduce their in-house inventory from 60 […]

MES President and CEO, Hiten Shah, read an article in Fortune last week about Kalanick and discussed about the disruptive model in a meeting. Couple of days later, we heard about Uber releasing a report on its diversity, inclusion, and bias practices. The report was written by former U.S. Attorney General (the lead lawyer for the U.S. Government), Eric Holder. The report concludes an investigation conducted by Holder, following allegations of harassment, discrimination, and retaliation from Susan Fowler, a former engineer at Uber. The report is a scathing criticism of virtually every aspect of how Uber leads and manages its personnel. To access report: http://online.wsj.com/public/resources/documents/Uber-covington.pdf It is sad to know such an egregious and discriminating behavior by the top executives, a cutting-edge company like Uber reprimanding their associates for failure when the whole model which company is built upon is unproven. Also, it is hard to believe how strong of […]
