DDS Sourcing for international buyers
 |
In a context of relocation and trade globalization, international sourcing has become a crucial issue for large distributors and manufacturers.
The ability to identify the best supply sources is a key factor of competitiveness and differentiation in a highly competitive marketplace
|
Selecting the best offerings in terms of value is necessary but so is being in control of logistic flows and related costs. That is why logistics must be integrated from the sourcing stage, i.e. from product selection: the cost of goods delivered – which includes customs and logistic costs – can then be determined, and available offerings compared objectively.
Thanks to its collaborative web portal, a workflow that includes all stakeholders, numerous decision-aid functions, the possibility to automatically restrict calls for tenders to the most relevant geographic zones and to fully automate custom and logistic costing, DDS Sourcing speeds up the sourcing process.
This solution generates substantial gains:
- Lower product acquisition costs
- Increased productivity for all parties involved in the purchasing process
- Less time spent searching for products, resulting in fast ROI
