Total Acquisition Costs

Companies who outsource typically don’t just look at unit cost, they consider the all the associated costs which includes the value that CHH and its partners can add throughout the products lifecycle.

The trickiest part of calculating TAC is what and how you include the ‘value adds’ into the analysis. Add to that the different emphasis that companies will put on what they really value.

You many for example:-

• be influenced by the desire to drive out all costs of production
• or readily available capacity, quality and flexibility
• or want innovative solutions to niggly but potentially costly problems.

If you are looking to reduce longer term costs you should be looking at the longer term partnership value where cost impact occurs throughout the life of the project not just at the beginning.

One of CHH’s primary goals is to provide our customers with excellent design and manufacturing services, engineering support, combined with our ability to think creatively and to do that in a cost-effective manner. This involves using our experience to work with customers to deliver what they really need, not just what is in the specification.
