OUTSOURCING STRATEGYBlinc Inc decided to outsource its production in order to lower its cost and to maintain its quality
because our main focus is to introduce this international brand in Pakistani market. This would
also give Blinc a greater level of control. Another benefit of having more than one outsourced
company contracted is that the companies must have competitive pricing as rivals and it helps
Blinc Inc to capture market share with low prices.
QUALITY CONTROL PROCEDURESBlinc Inc is not manufacturing the products our responsibility is to import the products and to
sell it to Pakistani market but it does not mean that we are free from quality control when the
product arrives it is our responsibility to check the quality (means their expiry date and any
damage during import) and to ensure the right quality of product to our customer. The strategy to
do this is to build a condition into the contract which states that outsourced contractors will be
subject to a 15% penalty if a greater than 3% product fault level is observed in the first year (the
guarantee period) from the product launch. However If the quality of product is 100% then it is
our responsibility to pay some rewards according to their efforts.
CUSTOMER SERVICE PROCEDURESBlinc Inc outsource its manufacturing so our main focus is toward our customers and to providethem service that will help us to retain our customer and to increase this will allow us to capture
market share and give competition to our competitors brands.
To interact with our customers we developed our own websitewww.Blincinc.com.pkwhich willallow our customers to become aware about products, to buy our products and to give us
feedback and if they have any query and complain they easily express them.
