Sourcing auditing |
Even for the most experienced clients who have been operating directly through direct sourcing or manufacturing facilities, China can still be very tricky. Due to the sheer amount of suppliers, selecting the right one takes considerable amount of resources, in term of time and dedicated personnel. Due to these constraints many companies often opt for the less worse supplier they can find. Lack of knowledge of local business practices and mentality further hinder the achievement of an optimal negotiation.
Moreover, it is well known that particularly in China, suppliers tend to `oil` up local purchasing officers through gifts and kick backs, resulting in higher prices or in the selection of not the most optimal supplier.
So we can help our clients answer this simple question: can we make a better deal on our purchases?
In this scenario we follow two complimentary actions: we approach the client existing suppliers in incognito to try to get better terms for the same products. In the same time we also scout for alternative suppliers through our extensive database and direct research |
