志向高 行动快 中国采购决胜之策－波士顿顾问

　　近十年来，随着在中国生产的产品质量的不断提升，加上中国的低成本优势，“中国制造”日渐引人注目，以至今天成为了消费工业采购领域的一个势在必行的举措。

　　从最近的几组事件中我们很容易看到这种趋势：福特宣布将从中国采购10亿美元的汽车零部件；沃尔玛在深圳建立了采购中心；飞利浦电子在中国的23家工厂生产的产品价值超过了50亿美元，其中大部分用于出口。

　　同其他新兴市场一样，中国市场同样充满了风险与挑战。而这些风险与挑战并不是不可规避和不能战胜的。也许在这场采购热中，最大的风险是你还没有行动，或者行动过慢。

The Boston Consulting Group---For more than a decade, "Made in China" has been a compelling sourcing option. Today, in the consumer industry, it is becoming an imperative.

Consider some recent news stories: Ford announced plans to buy $1 billion in auto components from suppliers based in China. Wal-Mart established a sourcing division in Shenzhen to buy directly from Chinese factories. And Philips Electronics'23 factories in China surpassed $5 billion in goods produced, most of them for export. For those companies and many others, the story starts with cost savings on components and finished goods---but that is not where it ends. The overarching objective is cost advantage.
