We hear the phrase," Hard times ahead," all the time. Companies are seeking alternatives to offset rising costs and lower profits. One alternative is outsourcing product. Whether its payroll processing, accounting, distribution, or manufacturing; outsourcing will benefit.

I've been fortunate, working for manufacturing companies that offer diversity and experience in many disciplines. I just returned from Dongguan , China , where I have lived and worked for the past two years. Dongguan, located in mainland China , is north of Hong Kong . After research and location selection, Dongguan offers a long term solution to outsourcing. Working and living in Dongguan, one acquires knowledge with living, working, and social lifestyles. This is very important; understanding the behavior of the workforce.

To understand a company and workforce behavior; one must dig into the very bowels of the company's organizational structure. Too often, managers and company leaders scratch the surface, allow chance to predict the outcome. The Chinese workforce offers unique opportunities for the company seeking to outsource its products; the ability to educate, modify and direct work behavior pro-actively.

With the downturn in the economy, companies should be considering outsourcing. Lower profits and higher costs; China offers natural resources, cheap labor, social and behavior structure. Countries like Vietnam , Philippines , and India must import many of their raw materials. Companies are scrambling to countries like Vietnam and India to offset rising costs in China . These countries are unstable and harvest terrorism.

Dongguan companies continue to flourish, relying on Lean/Sigma methodology to control costs. As a certified Six Sigma Black Belt and Lean manufacturing practitioner, I find this exciting to see eagerness when I apply Lean/Sigma tools. Although, locating the right company may be mind-boggling and risky, the rewards are higher profits and quality products at a low cost.
