9. Outsourcing Strategy Began many years ago but grew fast in last decade Most of manufacturing work outsourced Will hedge currencies where appropriate Teleconference & videoconference communication Supplier selection is important -- ISO companies preferred

10. Benefit (why China) Free Trade Zone Lower costs — Supply and Labor Yuan is pegged to US dollar Asia market is growing China is a fast growing market, and sourcing there opens the door to doing business in the local market and currency. Resources are readily available

11. Problems Lead Times  Singapore ships directly to Asia markets quickly  Shipment takes 3-5 weeks from Singapore to USA & Holland, where Americas and EMEA customers are served from.  Defective products are repaired locally in the USA and Holland, or replacement product must be shipped from Singapore.  Forecasting of demand is crucial Communication  Language barriers  Time zone differences  Cultural differences

12. Future Outsourcing Target Vietnam Thailand Eastern Europe Africa (still considering)

13. Printronix’s Case Printronix had outsourced the manufacturing of its proprietary ribbons to China. Ribbons are super critical for Printronix’s competitive advantage Moved manufacturing to Mexico to allow quick focus on design and process issues, and to be able to build and ship just in time to the Americas. Lesson learned: Do not outsource parts critical for business, particularly if the design and/or processes are not mature with high quality levels.

14. Conclusion Outsourcing is essential today Printronix gains from lower cost resources such as skilled workers and materials in outsourcing Everybody is doing outsourcing to lower costs and enhance competitive advantage
