St. Onge and BCI Form International Alliance

York, Pa. -- Netherlands-based Buck Consultants International (BCI) and U.S.-based St. Onge Co. have formed an alliance to provide trans-Atlantic consulting and engineering services.

Headquartered in York, Pa., St. Onge Co. is an independent, internationally respected consulting firm providing strategic logistics services including supply chain optimization, distribution and manufacturing facility design, and operations planning and training.

Buck Consultants International, headquartered in Nijmegen, The Netherlands, is a leading authority on European logistics and site selection that provides services for both the public and private sectors in the areas of supply chain optimization, strategic outsourcing and site selection.

We have always followed our clients around the world, assisting them with projects in numerous different countries," said Arthur St. Onge, the president of St. Onge Co. This alliance provides us not only with a permanent local presence but also allows us to offer a broader range of services and greater level of regional expertise to clients utilizing our services in the European marketplace".

René Buck, president of BCI stated We are convinced that our clients can benefit from this alliance, which extends the traditional service offering of BCI with full facility design and realization capabilities.

The absolute match in culture and corporate values of both alliance partners has convinced us that our partner St. Onge will add to the overall customer satisfaction of our clients."

Both St. Onge and BCI boast an impressive list of U.S., Asian and European clients representing a broad range of industries. BCI operates a network of nine European offices. In support of its supply chain consulting practice, BCI maintains highly refined European logistics and location databases that track information relative to regional labor and real estate costs and availability, taxes and incentives, transportation costs, third-party service providers and other key logistics metrics.

St. Onge brings to the alliance a knowledge of the North American marketplace backed by nearly 20 years of successes in supply chain strategy, manufacturing and distribution center design, and operations planning and management training for hundreds of small, large, and Fortune 500 clients.

Many businesses understand the risks and the need for workable solutions when planning manufacturing and distribution centers," said Arthur St. Onge. We have been fortunate in delivering consistently in the past.

This alliance will allow us to continue delivering those services with the added benefit of even more top-to-bottom capabilities that will be better attuned to regional considerations and needs."

The alliance between both companies already has started. Both are working with Pure Fishing, one of the worlds largest manufacturers of fishing tackle, to develop a long term European distribution strategy.
