Are supplier visits in China starting to take too much of your time? Scandic Sourcing can act as your buying office for strategic purchasing and expediting in China.
We are locally established in China and can support and handle your order and supplier management processes.
Many of our customers are in the situation that sourcing volume is expanding, but supplier engagement starts to require too many trips to China. Contract negotiations, technical explanations, control of manufacturing plan, first article inspection, SOP control, quality control strategy, technical questions, and final quality control, documentation problem solving etc.
By being on the ground in China and having a team that can speak the language and understand issues in manufacturing we are able to help.
We set up the program to fit client work processes. This often means that you place the orders as usual directly to suppliers. We follow up to see that they are understood, if there are open questions, that the manufacturing and quality control plan is prepared. Part of the quality control plan could be inspections by our team on regular intervals.
Scandic Sourcing can also help you identify new suppliers with a supplier search process. For new products we assist with going through drawings and if needed translate notes and important comments to Chinese and make sure they are adapted to Chinese specifications and systems that are understood by operators and subcontractors.
We combine our fee structure with affixed retainer for office work and a discounted hourly fee for field work.
The result is your own procurement department in China to minimize your risk and costs.

Case Study: Metro (MTR) Europe
Scandic Sourcing helped Metro Europe procure front shield windows to the Stockholm subway. Scandic Sourcing conducted a supplier search based on a great number of technical criteria supplied by MTR Europe. In addition to a thorough quality control of the front windshields, Scandic Sourcing also inspected the supplier's factory and production facilities. The supplier developed his facilities, adding separate rooms for welding and assembly, in correlation with Scandic Sourcing supplier development review. Read more about Supplier Development.
