Why Are Manufacturers Choosing To Wait Longer For Components?

Research from a recent Kearney survey, in collaboration with the World Economic Forum, clearly shows that accessing components from a well-resourced ‘Local Market’ supply chain provides manufacturers with many benefits over the global acquisition of parts for assembly in the UK.  
 
● Lower Transportation and Logistics costs.
● No Import duty and associated administration costs.
● Recognised Quality Assurance Standards and assured materials provenance.    
● Reliable ‘Just in Time’ delivery and reduced stock levels.
● Improved Communications and Rapid Engineering changes
● Reduced stock obsolescence.
● Local Engineering and Design support linked directly to production.
● Streamlined Commercial and Financial relationships.
