SAN JOSE -- Arena Solutions and Symphony Consulting on Sept. 13 will release findings from a recent joint survey on manufacturing outsourcing challenges and best practices.

Over 800 manufacturers responded and results were "startling," the companies said in a press release. For example, research revealed that while 85% of manufacturers surveyed outsource part or all of their manufacturing operations, nearly two-thirds risk the associated cost-savings because they lack adequate control and processes.

The study results will be revealed in a free webinar Sept. 13 at 10 a.m. Pacific.

Arena senior vice president of operations and strategic development Mark Holman and Symphony co-founder and president Bijan Dastmalchi will host.
