			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In recent months, according to people familiar with the matter, Asus (<a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-a2.html">Asus A2 battery</a> <a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-a42-a2.html">Asus A42-A2 battery</a>)approached contract computer manufacturers with offers to sell the plants. A person briefed on the plan said he expects the company to sell most &#8211; and perhaps all &#8211; of its factories &#8220;in the next 18 months.&#8221; Other factories could close, this person said. Asus would enter into agreements with contract manufacturers to produce PCs.</p>
<p>I think history says that the Asus was a &#8220;flash in the pan&#8221; company (relatively speaking), rather than a company that develop and sustain greatness to <a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-w1.html">Asus W1 battery</a>. The build-to-order model made sense in an era of desktop PC&#8217;s were highly customized to customers (giving them what they want FAST), and in an era when parts prices fell so fast that the <a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-w5a.html">Asus W5A battery</a> <a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-w1.html"></a></p>
<p>There was a cost advantage in competition.</p>
<p>I have a question for those who know <a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-s5n.html">Asus S5N battery</a> more about the production contract &#8211; this approach is really &#8220;cheaper&#8221; in terms of the total cost? Many of the cost savings appear to come from efficiency of scale of the contract factories &#8211; in greater quantities than the ground that the &#8220;shared&#8221; with multiple companies manufatured as <a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-s5n.html"></a><a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-eee-pc-900.html">Asus Eee PC 900 battery</a>. But Lean teaches us that size is not all, of the production. This is the only way to get low cost, which is a huge factory in China, a few hundred thousand workers to the staff?</p>
<p><a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-m5.html">Asus M5 battery</a> and <a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-m5n.html">Asus M5N battery</a>, which is why the sector is lean manufacturing approaches and build-to-order PC manufacturing, now finds itself lagging rivals in wringing the most savings of outsourcing of production activities partners.</p>
<p>What Asus did not own the system. It was not copied from the Toyota by <a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-eee-pc-1000.html">Asus Eee PC 1000 battery</a> <a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-eee-pc-1000h.html"></a>, the least. In recent years, many efforts to try to use the &#8220;TPS&#8221; the principles of the Asus, but the people involved know that this effort is always terribly disappointed, because the TPS way of thinking is so alien to their culture and <a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-eee-pc-1000h.html">Asus Eee PC 1000H battery</a>, it was very inconsistent.</p>
<p>Well, I&#8217;m sorry. Maybe this is the recognition that the world changes rapidly in a span of 10 years. In 1999, <a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-a3.html"></a><a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-eee-pc-701.html">Asus Eee PC 701 battery</a> was the best kind of new companies has been due to operations and supply chain excellence to <a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-a3.html">Asus A3 battery</a>. Now they want to be like Apple &#8211; design and sales, but not building anything.</p>
<p>Asus is tightening the belt a little bit different. As part of the continuing effort to reduce costs and increase competitiveness, the computer maker reportedly is considering selling its factories.</p>
<p>This is not a &#8220;belt tightening.&#8221; This &#8220;giving up&#8221;.</p>
<p>So the factories may be for sale that sales <a href="http://www.discount-laptop-battery.co.uk/ibm-40y6797.htm">IBM 40y6797</a> <a href="http://www.discount-laptop-battery.co.uk/ibm-40y6799.htm">40y6799</a>. The workers may still have a job, but with another company. The factories can not remain open, as the articles say the potential buyers bought <a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-a42-l5.html">Asus A42-L5 battery</a> might not want to take the &#8220;high cost of work&#8221; area plant. Thus, we see the Asuss made in Mexico or China? Maybe &#8230;. but I think Michael Asus also said it&#8217;s not his fault if the new buyer that this choice.</p>
<p>Inctries to sell its computer factories around the world, a move that a sudden transformation of a model that was long the hallmark of the PC <a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-a42-a4.html">Asus A42-A4 battery</a>giant&#8217;s strategy but is no longer competitive.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.discount-laptop-battery.co.uk/hp-pavilion-dv6000-battery.htm">Pavilion dv6000 Battery</a>, Which has changed in the era of cheap laptops. And <a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-m6.html">Asus M6 battery</a> could not develop. They tried to add all the other products (TV, printers, etc.) &#8211; but never used the &#8220;direct model&#8221; &#8211; they served as a retailer, may affect the design a bit.</p>
<p>I wonder what would have been played differently, if indeed there was a <a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-eee-pc-701.html">Eee PC 701 battery</a> &#8220;lean company.&#8221; This is not a true word &#8220;LAME&#8221; &#8211; in this case is not really trying to lean. Sad.</p>
<p>This is the &#8220;Lean&#8221; matters? Well, I think it&#8217;s a Lean issue, at any time to get the word used to describe a <a href="http://www.battery-mag.co.uk/asus-eee-pc-900.html">Eee PC 900 battery</a> &#8211; the word that I always thought it is completely inaccurate when describing Asus (as I wrote about earlier, in particular). The WSJ does it again.</p>
