6. Sourcing in China www.pcgsourcing.com PCG – Your Sourcing Agent in China PCG International Sourcing – Your Sourcing Agent in China > Is your company exploring the opportunities for cooperation with a Chinese partner? > Are you already in touch with a Chinese supplier but need support for rolling out the actual Sourcing Process? > Do you need a partner to support you locally for monitoring and following up your order flows?

We also have an extensive network of reliable partners and experts in the field of logistics, quality control, import/export etc. Why do we advise to cooperate with a local partner? China has over the recent years proven itself as being the global leader for production and outsourcing. Many different companies from all over the world therefore decided to investigate the opportunities for cooperation with a Chinese supplier or manufacturer. This led in many cases also to implementation and start up of actual sourcing/outsourcing.
7. www.pcgsourcing.com PCG – Your Sourcing Agent in China With communication tools like internet, email, etc. it has become more easy to get in contact with suppliers in China, however the perception of easiness is also a trap for many companies. The ease of establishing contacts is totally different from setting up and maintaining a high quality and reliable out sourcing processes. Underestimation of differences Due to the low threshold and ease of communication, many companies overlook the differences with Chinese suppliers regarding production methods, ways of thinking and communication. From its experience, PCG International Sourcing knows how essential local presence is in order to understand the supplier and make sure that orders are well understood and executed accordingly. This also means that not only the manufacturer but also you as a customer have a great influence on the outcome of a (out) sourcing process. Think about aspects like clear guidelines for (raw) material purchase, production and assembly instructions, quality control, etc. In case you don't define such important steps of the process, your cost benefits can easily turn into cost disadvantages. Be prepared With a proper preparation and local monitoring you significantly reduce the potential risks for (out) sourcing in China. It also helps to create a better relationship with the Chinese partner, that is in particular important in China. A good relationship offers more flexibility, open and more pro-active communication and dedication, which in the end will give the best result. Given our experience, PCG International Sourcing knows what the best ways are to set up your process in China and we do this in open and clear communication with both our customer and the Chinese suppliers. We also have Americans that are fluent in Mandarin Chinese to make the process even easier.
