问题如下:
A US company expanding critical spare part inventories for local customers made at its existing Canadian facility after a supply chain disruption is most likely using the coping tactic of:
选项:
A.reshoring the essentials. B.re-globalizing production. C.doubling down on key markets.解释:
A is correct. Te COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need for certain essential supply chains to be rebuilt domestically for emergency situations, with availability of critical spare parts being an analogy. Te close integration of the US and Canadian economies through the revised NAFTA agreement effectively makes expanded production at an existing Canadian factory an example of reducing manufacturing risk by relocating to home countries via reshoring.
B is incorrect because instead of reducing manufacturing risk by duplicating or fortifying its supply chain, the company is simply continuing to use its existing capacity more intensively.
C is incorrect because although the production is intended to better supply its home market, there is no evidence that the company is expanding its presence in the US market or shifting its focus to the exclusion of available opportunities elsewhere.
A是正确的。COVID-19大流行凸显了在国内重建某些关键供应链以应对紧急情况的必要性,关键备件的可用性就是一个例子。修订后的北美自由贸易协定使美国和加拿大经济紧密结合,有效地扩大了加拿大现有工厂的生产,通过回流将工厂转移到母国来降低制造风险。
B是不正确的,因为该公司并没有通过复制或加强其供应链来降低制造风险,而是只是继续更密集地使用其现有的产能。
C是不正确的,因为尽管生产是为了更好地供应其国内市场,但没有证据表明该公司正在扩大其在美国市场的存在,或将其重点转移到排除其他可用的机会。
