International Sourcing & Vendor Development

Build confidence in cross-border sourcing decisions—market scans, standards due diligence, and on-site assessments with subject-matter experts.

What we do

High-level international sourcing advisory

We help you evaluate cross-border supply options before you commit—mapping viable regions and supplier clusters, reviewing required standards and certifications, and running light price-trail and quality checks. When needed, we arrange SME-led factory or channel visits. The output is a defendable shortlist, a clear risk view, and a next-step plan for outreach and onboarding.

How we work

Advisory first; validate before you commit

We start with a tight brief and risk guardrails, then run a high-level region and supplier scan with standards/compliance and light price-trail/quality checks. Where useful, we add SME-led factory or channel visits to verify claims. You get a defendable shortlist, options with trade-offs, a clear risk view, and a next-step plan—fixed-scope sprints, no ongoing procurement.
