Our Supply Chain Realignment solution is a specialised value-driven offering

To survive in a dynamic world, driven by ever-evolving industry trends and technological innovation, multinational corporations must find newer ways of conducting business for survival and growth. Further, geopolitical disruptions, rising protectionist policies, regulatory scrutiny, possible COVID-19-like disruptions, restrictions on foreign investments and increasing cybersecurity threats are directly impacting their supply chain strategies. From diversification to reshoring and regionalisation to risk mitigation, policies have been adapted and processes overhauled.

Now, more than ever, CXOs are making tactical and operational changes to navigate through this highly uncertain, fast-changing global environment and meet the needs of a vastly evolved business landscape. In this process, they are seeking expert advice to limit and manage disruption, mitigate risk, and build resilience and agility.

KPMG in India has been closely monitoring the shifting investment trends and supporting clients in their supply chain diversification strategies. Through focused efforts, we are helping clients identify key risk areas that complicate strategic transformation, aiming for business continuity and resilience. Our efforts are channelised to help clients get forward-looking perspectives on areas related to:

Identifying new supply bases in alternative jurisdictions
Shortlisting the right set of partners for sourcing/manufacturing
Navigating complex tax and regulatory procedures across jurisdictions
Devising risk mitigation strategies to reduce transition-related disruptions
Building a supplier development roadmap for operating in a new jurisdiction
Advising on investment in technology and processes to become future ready

Global production networks are complex, sophisticated, interdependent and deeply entrenched, making reconfiguration a challenging task. In an era of global volatility, supply chains are navigating uncharted waters. Businesses continuously need to assess risk exposure, supply alternatives, tax considerations and channel complexities. Further, issues such as governance and regulatory adherence, the use of digital technology and analytics, implementation priorities and roadmaps need a detailed study and domain knowledge. We are here to help as your advisor. At KPMG in India, we use our significant subject matter expertise and multidisciplinary advisory services to demystify the complex implications of a decision to rebalance supply chains.

India advantage

India, much like other emerging economies, is exploring ways to build its investment attractiveness and make it a viable contender for global manufacturing/sourcing. The government’s investment-driven policy measures along with corporate tax cuts, investment in infrastructure under the National Infrastructure Pipeline (NIP) and business-friendly changes to labour laws are likely to further underpin India’s attractiveness as a global manufacturing hub.

Notable government reforms^*

Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan scheme launched at an estimated USD265 billion
The Product Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme announced with an outlay of USD27 billion for 14 sectors
A USD1.4 trillion National Infrastructure Pipeline (NIP) set up for infrastructure development
