Ally-Sourcing: Strengthening Global Supply Chains Andrew Rader writes that in today's interconnected world, companies with global supply chains are exposed to a myriad of risks. While some risks are inevitable, their impact can be mitigated. Ally-sourcing means partnering with sources that align with your company's political, environmental, social, and economic views. This strategy goes beyond traditional vendor selection, focusing on shared values and goals. Key takeaways: 1️⃣ Engage a holistic team when setting ally-sourcing objectives. 2️⃣ Identify cooperative countries that support your beliefs. 3️⃣ Select specific suppliers who resonate with your criteria. 4️⃣ Aim for long-term benefits, fostering strong relationships and clear communication. Dive deeper into the nuances of ally-sourcing and its potential to fortify your supply chain against global risks in our latest blog post. https://lnkd.in/eZ5T59GX #SupplyChain #GlobalBusiness #AllySourcing #ExecutiveInsights

The August Manufacturing PMI® reading of 47.2 percent signals continued contraction in the U.S. manufacturing sector, with significant uncertainty looming ahead of the U.S. elections. Indicators like the Production Index and Employment Index reveal ongoing challenges, including reduced output and workforce downsizing due to declining revenues. Meanwhile, inventory buildups, likely from delayed production adjustments, are adding pressure to the sector. Although there are potential signs of recovery post-election and as interest rates stabilize, the sector is still in a compressed, "Slinky-like" cycle. As the U.S. manufacturing sector experiences its fifth consecutive month of contraction, executives should evaluate whether they have the internal expertise to navigate these turbulent times. At SGS Maine Pointe, we offer more than just optimization of supply chains and production. What sets us apart is the speed, magnitude, and discipline with which we help capture value—empowering organizations to build agility and resiliency amid uncertainty.
