Taiwan into North America
Introducing Taiwanese advanced materials, components and process technology to North American buyers and distributors, and preparing the supplier for the qualification standard those buyers apply.
Corridor
Taiwan and the United States: advanced materials and North America access
Business development and partner access across North America, run from Michigan — close to the automotive and advanced-materials corridor where most of the demand sits.
North American buyers evaluating a Taiwanese supplier face a specific problem. The technical case is usually sound; the qualification burden is where the deal dies. Audits, documentation, and a supply chain that has to be defensible to a customer two tiers further down.
Our North America representation exists to make that qualification tractable — to put a real person between a US buyer and a Taiwanese plant, rather than a purchase order and a hope.
Which way the work goes
North America into Taiwan
Identifying and qualifying Taiwanese suppliers for US manufacturers, with site visits, quality-system assessment, and the documentation an incoming inspection will ask for.
