Process Flow Diagram
Electric fan manufacturing is one of the key sectors of Riordan Manufacturing with its
plant located in China. In essence, the company outsources non-core operations, and only
conducts the fan assembly process within. The motors and plastic polymers are completely
assembled and purchased from local Chinese company, whereas the logistics are outsourced to a
local shipping company or FedEx. The operations done inside the company only include the
creation of individual plastic parts of the fan, the assembly of the parts, packing of the fans, and
temporary storage until the fans are shipped to the consumers. The summary of the supply chain
process may be seen below.
