The cost of doing business across the world is growing, and companies need to re-evaluate their current methods to see if it is time to make a change. For years, many companies were hurrying to move manufacturing processes to places like China and Brazil because it was an opportunity to plant a flag in new territory and the cost of doing business was cheaper.

However, according to a recent article from Cerasis, re-evaluating outsourcing is critical because there could be a number of unknown risk factors associated with this practice. The biggest problem, according to the piece, is that many organizations were too quick to follow move across the world believing it to be "the next gold rush" based on a "flimsy foundation" of information.

That fact is frightening and it should make business owners want to look more closely at the numbers, and that's before the economic factors that have changed over the last few decades are taken into account.

"Several organizations are off to a good start. There are many positive movements reshoring manufacturing back to America and rebuild the U.S. manufacturing base," the article reads. "In other cases, the basic sourcing strategy might remain unchanged, but with significant wastes and costs eliminated in the total supply chain."

Manufacturing is going to start moving closer to home and businesses need to be ready for it. With the help of a company that specializes in business management software, any organization can be ready for whatever the the industry has in store.
