Overview

Flextronics employs a business group strategy that maximizes the economies of scale of our centralized core services, such as manufacturing, procurement, logistics and IT and customized, market-specific capabilities offered through industry-specific design, engineering and original design and manufacturing (ODM) services. This approach enables us to deliver highly competitive services in an increasingly complex industry with a diverse, competitive customer base. It also allows us to make fast, flexible decisions in response to changing market conditions. Flextronics delivers value and innovation to our original equipment manufacturer (OEM) customers through the following four business groups.
