Soren McAdam Christenson LLP Certified Public Accountants and Business Advisors Manufacturing and Distribution Today The manufacturing and distribution
environment has never been so challenging in the United States. Companies are not only faced with the traditional business challenges, but are also experiencing a shift towards expanding or moving operations internationally. Global labor markets and increasing regulatory and environmental pressures combine in a pincer fashion to squeeze margins. Yet, even in this challenging environment our manufactured exports are at historical highs, and productivity continues to increase at record levels.* Companies face multiple sophisticated issues in costing, facilities, labor, procurement and pricing. Selling, warehousing and transportation issues, financing, and a multitude of systems and administrative issues, as well as financial reporting and tax compliance, demand both competence and timeliness. SMC has the deep resources needed to assist you in all of these areas.
