How can we beat China in manufacturing?

'Made in India' tag carries a better product than one made in China. Be it technology, durability or design we excel the Chinese anytime. For example, check the boom in the indian mobile manufacturing sector. There are number of indian mobile phones available in the market which are as good as the global mobile phone leaders and far better than those cheap, use and throw shabby looking mobile phones "Made in China". If we use the same formulae in other products also, we can very easily overtake Chinese goods.

Chinese domination in Manufacturing will not last long."Made in China" Goods last only for few hours with servicing of goods being impossible.Importance to Reaserch of International standards  in Science & Technology is absolutely necessary to dominate not only China but even other countries.  

Mass production capacity with consistent required quality & time bound delivery & that too with competitive rates; I think that's the only Mantra...specially to compete China,,,

Thanks Isha for the referral.

The"Made in China goods" available in India are with added features and are available at cheaper rates comparing "Made in India" with quality sparingly good.India can stop China by manufacturing items and making available in the market comparatively at lower rate This can be done by restructuring taxes.Of course we can beat China by little bit of innovation in market policy  and tax revision.

Just bring half the discipline so people forever misusing democracy can fall in line and you may already be ahead of China.

Every one either in govt. or in private aim to get more and more financial benefits, most of them don't put in apt effort to attend to the work in hand.

sincere workers are side stepped by the favorites of the higher ups, and other considerations.

the above are not a generic opinion but my own experience and observations at the sites of units I dealt with.

why must it have to be about beating China? why cant we start to be as good?

Learn from what we didnt do when we should have, use the pluses from the China book, combine both & optimize for best results. We must learn to match them & beat them at their game - believe me, we have a long way to go to get there!

Then we can add to it - handling quantum like them & matching their prices, will need a lot of innovation plus infrastructure development to hit the nail on the head! It is about a lot more than just capability & capacity!

We have many experienced hands available in India, who have dealt with China at various levels. Use that expertise but most important is to get our own ready for the challenge!

Once more issue of critical importance - it is not necessary to show them down in order to be one up on them. More often than not, it is better to play the game from the others rules & learn to get better! Who better than the Chinese themselves?

Every one talks about quality but is the qulity worth its price? this what every manufacturer has to think and produce. Every quality sells. This is what china is doing. We always think that governament is not doing sufficiently, but what we are ding has to be analysed and try to improve on product, marketing aftersales service. Mass production will not help with out aggressive marketing. China has different channels of marketing. Most of their products are exported, irrespective of the quality. For exports govenament is giving lot of incentives. We need think of global marketing if we have to compete with china. when you have created demand,  mass production automatically follows.

I know a company producing industrial pumps and unable to market the product. the problem is the price is compared with the best in the country, but the quality is worst. When we look at other manufacturers with very low prices, the manufacturing proces and material used is different and the same is acceptable to a perticular sigment of end users. Hence market sigmentation, product re-engineering, marketing stratagies are the only wepons to beat china
