An optimized global production footprint can give a company a strategic edge by delivering long-term savings of around 20 percent of total landed costs.1 Savings can even exceed 40 percent for companies with a legacy of fragmented sites in high-wage countries. The globalization of a company’s production and sourcing also creates a platform for entry into new markets. However, planning and execution are still a feat — on average, the companies we surveyed had only achieved production cost reductions of 13 percent in recent relocations.
