Finding Your Fit: Four Flexible Paths to Nearshoring Success with TNC
Not every company stepping into nearshoring needs the same boots. Some want to blaze a trail with a full-service partner by their side. Others are just dipping a toe in the water—testing what it feels like to manufacture in Mexico without overcommitting. The good news? At The Nearshore Company (TNC), we’ve built a service model that flexes with you, not the other way around.
Think of it as a menu with four levels—each one built to match where you are, where you’re going, and how much support you need. Whether you’re a startup exploring new territory or a global player ready to run at full speed, we’ve got a model that fits your journey.
Here’s a breakdown of our four service tiers, from minimal lift to full partnership:
Basic: The Bare Minimum with a Maximum Focus
Let’s say you’re already running lean. You know what you’re doing and just need help crossing the border—literally and legally. Our Basic level gives you exactly that. It’s ideal for companies that want a minimal footprint but still need support with setup, compliance, and basic operations to get started in Mexico without stepping on landmines.
We keep it simple: legal structure, labor compliance, and some foundational back-office help. You do the heavy lifting—we make sure you can lift without regulatory surprises.
Core: Reliable Support for Essential Operations
If Basic is dipping a toe in the water, Core is getting your ankles wet. Companies at this level are looking for more than just setup—they need dependable support with day-to-day operations in critical areas like HR, payroll, accounting, and basic logistics.
You’ll still lead the charge, but we’ve got your back when it comes to staying compliant, organized, and on track. For businesses scaling up or shifting focus to growth, Core offers a solid operational backbone without overcomplicating things.
Enhanced: Manufacturing Confidence at Scale
Enhanced is where things start getting exciting. If you’re manufacturing at scale, with multiple vendors, SKUs, and moving parts, you need a partner who can help you keep your head above water. At this level, TNC supports you with expanded operational services—think more hands-on help with supplier management, more robust quality systems, and deeper logistics coordination.
It’s ideal for companies who’ve established a foundation and are now ready to optimize. You’ll benefit from the process know-how, the in-country expertise, and the proactive problem-solving that comes with three decades of boots-on-the-ground experience.
Advanced: Your Trusted Operator on the Ground
This is the deep end—and we love swimming in it. Advanced clients are all-in. You’re looking for a strategic partner that can shoulder broad operational responsibility and manage your Mexico-based operations with the same care and intensity you’d expect from your in-house team.
At this level, TNC becomes a true extension of your company—managing facility operations, continuous improvement initiatives, workforce strategy, and regulatory compliance with one goal in mind: making Mexico a profit center for your business. If you’re looking to scale aggressively, reduce costs, and focus on the strategic levers of your business, Advanced is your lane.
Why It Works: Tailored for What You Actually Need
At The Nearshore Company, we don’t believe in “one size fits all.” We believe in partnerships that work at the right size, right now—with room to grow. That’s why our clients stick with us for 13 years on average—nearly triple the industry norm.
Whatever stage you’re in, we’ll help you build the right foundation, scale confidently, and operate efficiently—all without losing sleep over foreign compliance, operational chaos, or a disconnected workforce.
