1. How would you characterize VF’s various products/brands in terms of critical
competitive priorities (i.e., price, quality, variety and speed)? What are the implications
for sourcing strategy?
Cons:
• Closing down internal plants despite strong performance and giving away human
resource to external contractors is a huge risk.
• As contractors and suppliers were now being provided with investments and latest
engineering solutions and technologies, there is chance that they might start their own
apparel line and stop serving VF.
• It’s hard to convince existing suppliers to join the Third Way partnership as they are
reluctant to shed away their traditional methods of operating and also they will loose
other clients.
