“Source Asia Saves North American Manufacturer Over 50% in Tooling and Component Costs by Managing the Outsourcing of a Custom-Engineered, Injection-Molded Plastic Component to Asia” 

Asia Industrial Sourcing/Program              Management Opportunity   A leading North American industrial manufacturer (the “Company”) of custom engineered metal products sought a solution for sourcing a plastic component at low-cost from Asia.  The plastic component required new injection mold tooling and management of the Asia procurement process for its life.

Source Asia’s Program             Management Solution   Source Asia met with the Company, and scoped the details of the Asia sourcing project – from vendor identification and qualification through door-to-door delivery.  Source Asia saved over 50% in tooling and production costs for the Company, and still manages the sourcing of the plastic component from Asia today – nearly 5 years later!
