Services

We at Savvy Sourcing offer the following services to our clientele:

Product Sourcing / Product Development

Product Sourcing is the basis of each and every order and proceedings. If our sourcing is from an appropriate source, the end product would also be as per our aspirations. We have strong rots penetrated all over for effective sourcing, covering all the product categories for all segments of international market. The product development becomes active once the buyer has approved on our sourced products which are sent trough photo presentations. Product is developed according to buyer's requirements and dispatched within the date stipulated by the buyer. All the samples are checked before sending so that the modifications, if any, are taken care of. We put tag with feeding all important data required by the buyer and keeps a counter sample in their record for all follow-up. The dispatch details are advised thereafter.

Merchandising

This involves entire execution of order from the initial to final stage, till the shipment is on board with massive and close follow up at various stages of production and updating buyer accordingly. Apart from this we take care of the entire packaging to be followed for a particular order. Normally we prefer to make it uniform for all the orders and standardize same so that it is approved once and for all and becomes easier for buyer too.

Factory Evaluation

Factory Audits/Evaluations are conducted to check the production capacity and the infrastructure of the chosen vendors. This audit is increasingly becoming important in the India context due to the linked problem of child labour, social welfare norms, pollution problems etc. The evaluation of the supplier's factory plays a vital role in contributing to the end product. We make sure that the factory has adequate resources and man power to complete the production and meet with buyer's quality standards. Thorough Audits are conducted by Savvy's professionals to foresee the supplier's strength, the facilities being provided to their employees so that they wok in full swing and in turn the merchandise meet the etd date etc.

Quality Control

To be able to quality control the merchandise produced by its vendors, Savvy Sourcing has adopted the universally acclaimed system of quality evaluation known as the AQL (Accepted Quality Level). This system helps judge the quality level of the produced goods by identifying and categorizing the defects. It enables the QC to decide if the merchandise passes the acceptability norms of the client. We believe that quality control exercise must be simultaneous to production and is not a terminal exercise for this reason we monitor the quality at each stage of production in all respects. Above all we cannot control quality but can render our services to assure best quality.

Logistics

Only after receipt the "OK for shipment" from Savvy Sourcing, the supplier is permitted to dispatch the goods.

The Logistic Department follows up the shipment once he gets the "OK for shipment" from the QC Department. He is in regular touch (several times a day) with the clearing and forwarding agent and gets a daily report by fax in order to follow-up the documents required for shipping and to monitor closely the movement of cargo. This ensures that it is put aboard the targeted vessel and meets the deadline of the buyer. A special software has been designed to enable a proper follow-up. We also take proper care of the consolidation of merchandise, as buyer normally prefer to have the merchandise consolidated from various suppliers.

The Logistic Department makes sure that all the documents required for import are sent to the buyer in order to avoid delay in clearance of goods at destination. Savvy Sourcing finally sends a shipping advice with all relevant details of shipment.

Savvy Sourcing is actually an "extension" of his client and assists him from the very initial stages to the final shipment. It takes the burden of all the follow-up action on behalf of his client and ensures a smooth "sailing".
