PROCUREMENT SERVICES

Global sourcing is a complex process for many purchasing managers. The first question often asked is which country to source from. Mr. Calabrese suggested two key considerations – labour force and transportation infrastructure. He concluded that though many low cost sourcing countries have made progress in these areas, China continues to remain ahead of countries like India, Vietnam, Sri Lanka, and so on.

Now the question of which country to source from (at least as a starting point) is resolved, the following question is: whether you should do it on your own or hire someone to help you. The following three queries to consider may offer additional help in your decision making process:

  • Is global sourcing a major part of your corporate strategy? If you have not made a long-term commitment to source globally, it makes sense to hire someone to give you a quick start, hence relieving your precious resources to focus on other more important matters.

  • Can you afford a long sourcing cycle (from 8 to 12 months)? If time is of the essence, it makes sense to hire someone to cut down the sourcing cycle.

  • Are you sourcing just a portion of your materials from overseas? It makes sense to have someone helping you if you are sourcing just a portion of your requirements from overseas.
