00:00:00.375 --> 00:00:03.795
A remarkable trend has unfolded
over the past five years.

2
00:00:03.795 --> 00:00:07.257
Over 90% of North American
manufacturers we surveyed are

3
00:00:07.257 --> 00:00:09.217
moving significant parts
of their production

4
00:00:09.217 --> 00:00:10.969
and sourcing to different countries.

5
00:00:14.264 --> 00:00:15.765
Analysis shows this
trend will keep growing

6
00:00:15.765 --> 00:00:17.392
over the next five years.

7
00:00:17.392 --> 00:00:20.645
We wanted to know: How can
companies prepare for this shift?

8
00:00:25.775 --> 00:00:27.861
The global supply chain is undergoing a

9
00:00:27.861 --> 00:00:29.612
massive transformation.

10
00:00:29.612 --> 00:00:31.322
Cost is the primary reason,

11
00:00:31.322 --> 00:00:33.742
but other drivers include
shortening lead times,

12
00:00:33.742 --> 00:00:35.827
operating in more stable
business environments,

13
00:00:35.827 --> 00:00:39.205
and more flexibility at
responding to disruption.

14
00:00:39.205 --> 00:00:41.332
That's in response to a decade of changes

15
00:00:41.332 --> 00:00:43.710
around the world leading to a redrawing

16
00:00:43.710 --> 00:00:44.878
of the manufacturing map.

17
00:00:46.254 --> 00:00:47.547
Understanding this

18
00:00:47.547 --> 00:00:50.425
and moving supply chains at
the end could be a company's

19
00:00:50.425 --> 00:00:52.469
secret to saving 20 to 50%.
