Improving your strategic sourcing decisions: Total cost of ownership and total risk profiling

Here is a recently published report on reshoring manufacturing back to the US.  This report covers how it is imperative that manufacturers consider and analyze the benefits, risks and costs of all available sourcing options in order to meet business and profit goals, including:

Offshoring – Complete or partial manufacturing sourced overseas
Reshoring (also known as backshoring or onshoring) – Bringing back to the U.S. the manufacturing of products that will be sold here
Nearshoring – Shifting manufacturing from offshore or the U.S. to Canada, Mexico and
Central America
Outsourcing – Work done by another company, wherever located
In-house – Work done in the company’s facilities, wherever located
