Strategic SourcingThe phenomenon of Low Cost Country (LCC) sourcing is embraced in varying degrees by foreign manufacturers, yet those that achieve success are invariably the ones that embrace this phenomenon with a long term view instead of only seeking short term cost gains. This is where sourcing becomes strategic, and THE BEIJING AXIS' expertise in setting up and managing sourcing relationships enables the client to concentrate on managing their own companies' long term strategic adjustments, rather than the nuts and bolts of managing a supplier.
