In today’s competitive manufacturing climate, many companies are seeking the benefits of global sourcing, which undoubtedly can offer many benefits but has also been portrayed as a panacea for reducing cost and improving competitiveness.

Unfortunately while many companies would like the benefits regrettably there are significant barriers and global sourcing is not easily achievable - involving investment in time and resources to locate suppliers, problems with communication, quality standards, extended delivery times, financial commitments and higher levels of strategic stock.


Mec Com’s competitive advantage is the ability to work across a number of complementary technologies and to reliably deliver customised manufacturing solutions for clients. To support this Mec Com have developed a supply chain solution that links together Mec Com manufacturing partners, buyers and design engineers in a global network .

The Mec Com global network allows the company to blend together capabilities and solutions that are available in different countries to deliver the right product, at the right price and at the right time, to the customer. This allows customers to enjoy the benefits of global sourcing without the communications problems, intellectual property risks and quality issues that are normally an inevitable part of the equation.
