Outsourcing
Supply chain manager Gerrit van Keulen has gained years of experience in outsourcing activities in the Netherlands and abroad.
The first contacts with machining companies in central Europe date back to the 90's.
During the following period a huge network was built with reliable and high-quality suppliers in the metal industry.
The key to success
Many companies have bad and often tedious experiences with outsourcing their production to so called 'low-wage countries'. Common problems are:
- Unreliable delivery times
- Communication difficulties caused by language and cultural differences
- Low level of quality
- Labor-intensive assistance
A lot of 'Western' companies will face, in addiction to the above-mentioned experiences, the following facts:
- The current labor- and machine hours are relatively expensive
- The costs of the production are under pressure, which causes low margins
