Abstract:

Making the decision to extend a supply chain into the international market can add value to a company's competitive advantage, particularly for global businesses with local manufacturing partners. This paper will address key elements to foster a successful Program Project Management using Critical Chain principles for source identification, adjustment and harmonization of the necessary knowledge and standards to balance the differences between cultures and technology, including in this discussion a Risk Management tool and the transition to a Global Quality approach to build and maintain strong relationships throughout a worldwide supply base.
