The manufacturing industry has been hard hit by the current financial crises and widespread economic slowdown. Nevertheless, it is favoured by governments world-wide for its ability to create jobs, utilize new technology and boost exports.
The emergence of low-cost manufacturers exacerbates this sector's difficulties by increasing price pressure and strengthening the competition. Lured by low production costs elsewhere, some companies have decentralized certain processes, thereby increasing the number of production sites and supply sources.
At the same time, quality control is one of the most important business concerns for manufacturers worldwide. The common goal shared by all manufacturers, regardless of their size, is to continuously improve the quality, effectiveness, and the profitability of their operations.
To continue being an ever-stronger competitor and the preferred supplier to their customers, manufacturers need to follow best practices and conform to applicable regulatory requirements.
