Bob Frederickson brings 15 years' experience as a senior manager in two of the foremost business advisory firms and in a leading architect engineering company consulting to senior corporate executives regarding location decisions. In that time he has directed site selection studies, global integration efforts, relocation projects, consolidations and other location strategy consulting engagements for industrial clients including those in the automotive, biotechnology, electronics, financial, insurance and real estate, petrochemical, power, and pharmaceutical sectors. Types of facilities located include those for headquarters, manufacturing, back and middle office, shared services, R&D, and distribution.
These engagements have provided him with a keen appreciation for the role of location in the overall corporate business strategy toolkit. Through his work and speaking and writing engagements, Bob has become internationally recognized by economic development agencies as a leading site selector which, in turn, has given him access to an ongoing information stream about regional investment opportunities and corporate investment decisions.
BF Strategic Site Selection Services is pleased to offer location strategy consulting with a personalized approach that emphasizes agility, flexibility, objectivity, and selectivity not found in large management consulting organizations. We use the same data sources and geographical information systems as do site selection consultants in those organizations, but work directly for you without an expensive corporate overhead or bureaucratic encumberances.
If you are considering new greenfield locations for your operations, whether regionally, nationally, or internationally, or are simply interested in envisioning alternatives for global integration of your enterprise, we have proven methodologies to assist you. We evaluate both the quantitative cost impact of location strategies, and qualitative operating conditions such as general business environment, labor availability and flexibility, language skills, infrastructure, real estate, and living environment.
