Our Approaches

We tackle all the pain points throughout the CapEx investment process between Chinese equipment suppliers and North American manufacturers.

Supply Side Challenges – Chinese Equipment Suppliers/Integrators

What Went Wrong:

• Using domestic marketing materials and sales approaches for North American customers.
• Lack of understanding of North American customers’ requirements and expectations.
• No awareness of North American customers’ pain points.
• Inexperience with North American machinery standards.
• Absence of local service expertise and team presence in North America.
• Unprofessional sales and service teams mishandling North American customers.
• Weak communication with North American customers during machine building and project management phases.

Demand Side Challenges – North American Manufacturers

What Went Wrong:

• Misjudging capabilities through unfamiliar marketing materials.
• Outdated information and incorrect perceptions of Chinese quality and machinery building standards.
• Language barriers in technical discussions.
• Incorrect application of North American standards to Chinese suppliers without clarification.
• Concerns about after-sales services and lack of local support.
• Visiting restrictions and insufficient due diligence.
• Unrealistic lead time and cost expectations.
• Time differences, lack of real-time communication, and delays in getting answers.

Our Solutions:

• A team of experts with hands-on experience in North America, dealing with local customers in equipment building, commissioning, and servicing.
• Comprehensive service covering sales, marketing, concept development, technical review, project management, on-site commissioning, and after-sales services.
• Serving as a gateway for Chinese equipment suppliers to North American manufacturers.
• Understanding the cultural and business approaches of both sides, eliminating language barriers.
• Bridging the gap by providing North American customers with Chinese costs and lead times, but with North American standards of service and quality.

Our solutions ensure that these challenges are effectively addressed, fostering smooth and successful collaboration between Chinese equipment suppliers and North American manufacturers.
