Report: Onshoring Not a Trend in West

摘要

Bannockburn, IL - Despite widespread publicity, few Western companies have taken the plunge and relocated operations back to their home countries, a new report reveals. Many Western companies have considered onshoring, but only a few have taken action, IPC said in releasing the report in July. The data are based on a two-year survey of North American and European companies, and detail the impact of onshoring and domestic sourcing on their operational and financial performance in 2014, addressing metrics such as costs, delivery time, time to market, quality control, inventories and sales.
