In our increasingly global economy, offshore sourcing for materials, components, and finished goods is a reality more and more companies must accept to remain competitive – both for domestic consumption, and for further off-shore processing and worldwide distribution. You can argue that the apparent cost savings may be offset by the time and complexity introduced, but global supply chains are here to stay anyway. Where once we had to consider truck vs. rail, and three time zones, now we’re also dealing with ocean and air in a vastly more complex network – one with significantly more regional variation than we’re accustomed to.
The Progress Group has lived and breathed these issues, all over the world, as have our global partners. We have the tools, the people, and the relationships to help you meet the planning and performance imperatives of this brave new world.
