Safety at the Source OpportunityThe Problem: Importers from China sometimes face expensive delays and even recalls due to product specifications and safety standards not being met by the supplier and their extended supply chain.

A Solution: A group of importers and Duke are working together to design short “Safety at the Source” workshops for Chinese manufacturers, to be delivered in China at Duke’s Kunshan campus by Duke CE’s Mandarin-speaking educators.

Safety at the Source Topics• Analytical tools and skills that can be used to solve

supply chain problems• Techniques to flag importer’s faulty designs and risky

timelines• Process control protocols, so that testing and quality

control catch the products that fail to meet export safety standards

• Pre-work to the 3-day workshop: CPSC standards that are translated and online and review basics. Must pass Duke CE test to receive Certificate of Completion.
