本文探讨了全球采购的产品周期的组织结构。本文将一个新的产品清单数据集与中国海关数据相结合。分析发现，跨国公司首先在其外国子公司内生产。当产品成熟时，公司开始将其生产外包给外部的外国供应商。国际外包在产品周期中出现的时间沿着提前，此时可收缩性较好。
This paper examines the organizational structure of global sourcing over the product cycle. This paper combines a new product list data set with China's customs data. The analysis finds that multinationals first produce within their foreign subsidiaries. When the product matures, firms start to outsource their production to external foreign suppliers. International outsourcing appears earlier along the product cycle when contractibility is better.
