High Tech industry in China grew double digits over last few years. Investment for more capacities become a hot topic to capture the lion share in the Mainland and overseas market. All these decisions are made without considering language, cultural and adaptation capability of the local resources. And the result can be disastrous - inventory pile up, high WIP, waste from rejects, unnecessary movement & storage and long manufacturing cycle.

Simply investing in capacity doesn’t assure competitiveness in the future. You need agility, visibility and control to formulate a winning strategy regardless of your role in this industry - CEM, ODM or EMS.

One of the best practices in managing China operations is to build an end-to-end LEAN practices - providing a single integrated process that supports pull based production system (JIT). By being LEAN, you are able to achieve high operational visibility and mange simple pull process to drive replenishment from suppliers and feeding line. It eliminates WIP and inventory holding, creates agility in the production line and shortens entire manufacturing cycle.
