The core objective of SPX is to assist international large enterprises in finding competent subcontractors worldwide to complete the equipment and spare parts processing and manufacturing; to help the main contractors lower the costs of production for developing their core competition; and to give assistance to those subcontractors to get more international business opportunities and orders and to upgrade their productivity. The SPX allows buyers to take advantage of the emerging opportunities that evolve from industrial subcontracting, outsourcing and supply chain opportunities on a global scale.
Using the SPX system, buyers can easily submit requests for quotations to potential suppliers on a global scale, leveraging on the network of UNIDO SPX offices worldwide. Each SPX office maintains a carefully researched database of suppliers that is used to select the suppliers that are asked to submit a quote.
The SPX allows local enterprises to successfully meet the challenges of globalization and to take advantage of the emerging opportunities that evolve from industrial subcontracting, outsourcing and supply chain opportunities.
By registering in the SPX system, and providing detailed information about their organization, suppliers can be included in the list of companies that are contacted by the SPX office when buyers submit requests for quotations.
