Survey on reverse outsourcing to the U.S. and Europe

Survey on reverse outsourcing to the U.S. and Europe
Several factors have contributed to the erosion in the outsourcing rate to India and China. Among them we can refer to:

- Current trends in currency exchange rates
- Increasing commodity costs
- Escalating labor costs in previously lower-cost countries
- Higher price of oil which has led to increase in transportation costs

As a result, some manufacturers are beginning to rethink their manufacturing and supply chain network strategy by bringing operations home or near-shore - especially to better serve local markets. That's why Supply Chain Management Review Magazine has started a new survey to identify how companies are behaving in such situation.
