The ‘Data Everyday’ Approach You Need to Map This Global Trade Crisis
You’re doing well as a brand, retailer or importer if you’re still standing; if you recently came close to toppling and were able to grab on to something to steady yourself. Temporarily at least.
The macro-tectonic plates, on which we all exist, continue to shift, making forecasts and planning tougher than corporations are used to.
But trade always finds a way. Always.
And amid such instability, the only safety rail worth grabbing onto; the only visibility to be gained on supply chains, is in new sets of data.
The best data. Live data.
The datasets on which our competitors have built their legacy testing, inspection and certification operations may have felt sufficient in ‘peacetime’ but are falling short in the heat of the current and ongoing frenzy.
There’s a need to audit the intelligence and capability that you receive from your TIC operators, and identify the gaps. Quickly.
A new type of dataset can clear the fog revealing an ‘always-on’ overview and analysis of what’s happening right now, in the countries and regions that matter to you.
What would give you the resilience to turn this daily Richter scale count into new opportunities and a better supply chain? Would, for example, day-by-day changes in defect rates for your category of products, not just by country, but by precise regions and cities, help save you extensive time out of an otherwise painstaking research process?
Just 13% of global businesses say they have full visibility of their sourcing networks and supply chains. For businesses however, that understand that the post ‘April 2 era’ requires a different type of partner, QIMA has data rich enough to help focus your sourcing decisions and set up risk-based quality management strategy, hence saving on costs.
Within such turbulence there is competitive advantage to be gained for those that act.
We are fielding submissions for a limited number of ‘War Room’ sessions for senior global sourcing executives to share their most urgent challenges and learn of the capability QIMA’s dashboards deliver for our clients.
Companies that have the data they need every day, will use this crisis to grow market share. They won’t wait to see where the new world order lands. They’re building a significant advantage now. Trade always finds a way. So what’s your next move?
