Project management in China: your questions
What kind of projects can you manage?
Development of custom products, sourcing of a new product line, orders spread over several suppliers or any import project that needs coordination between suppliers, quality control and shipping.
How will I be kept informed?
Your point of contact gives you regular updates, in your language, and alerts you as soon as a risk or a delay appears.
Can you take over a project that has already started?
Yes. We first review where the project stands, then take over or complement what is already in place.
