ASMI is unique for two reasons:

• Our expertise is bi-national
• Our focus is knowledge-based manufacturing, R&D and technology-based business

Our business services provide the timely, comprehensive and cost-effective information necessary to make critical business and policy decisions. As experienced business executives, we understand the requirements for business success. We are personally engaged in the industrial activity in our region, so you start way up the learning-curve when you work with us.

Management and Business Consulting

ASMI Associates are skilled in all aspects of operations for small and mid-size manufacturers.  Our Associates are individuals with decades of experience in each of the Eight Perspectives of Value Creation, and are also highly knowledgeable about business conditions globally, as well as in the bi-national southwest.  We will work with you to create custom solutions that meet your business needs, at an affordable price.

Location and Site Consulting

If you are looking for a cost-effective, objective assessment of whether capabilities in the Arizona-Sonora region can meet your company’s needs, this is also a service that ASMI can provide. Assessments are performed by independent researchers who are most knowledgeable about the overall capabilities in the region — not promoting a particular manufacturer or shelter operation.

We are experienced business executives, strategists and organization development specialists, who can assist you with developing strategies, decision frameworks and facilitating the decision-making process for site location, growth and expansion plans.

We are not a broker and do not accept referral fees. You receive objective advice and pay only for the cost of your study.

Information Services

We are building a database of relevant and up-to-date information. Where we identify gaps in the information available, we are working with public, private and our own researchers to conduct the studies required to close those gaps.  Let us know about your information needs.

Public Sector Advisory Services

Our network of experts work with governmental and NGO groups to provide targeted advice on programs and policies that are most appropriate to encourage the growth of knowledge-based manufacturing.

Speaking Engagements

We welcome the opportunity to address public and private groups.
