Managing the Global Supply Chain in China

Global Suppliers Institute Helps MNCs Improve Supplier Workplace Standards
The rapid expansion of manufacturing and global sourcing in the People's Republic of China (PRC) creates a challenging environment for managers of PRC-based supplier factories. In managing the growth process, these factories are faced with trying to maintain compliance with PRC workplace laws while meeting customers' needs and delivering strong financial performance. Often, these needs conflict. What can be done?

Multinational corporations (MNCs) who work with, and depend on, PRC-based suppliers can play a critical role in helping suppliers to master this difficult balancing act. Now, they can provide such support through an exciting, new platform: the Global Suppliers Institute (GSI). The GSI, to be launched in the Fall of 2005 in Shanghai, will be a management training center for supplier company executives. The GSI is being designed in partnership with MNCs committed to working with PRC–based suppliers, contractors, and joint–venture partners to improve compliance with PRC workplace standards in ways that strengthen operational and financial performance.
