Pete Mikhjian, Chief Revenue OfficerSupply Chain Resources Group (SCRG) is vital in today’s global economy, specializing in flexible, on-demand engineering and operations talent to manage and optimize complex offshore supply chains across various industries—from Fortune 500 giants to agile startups.
Its talent on-demand service deploys skilled professionals, such as manufacturing process engineers or quality engineers, directly to clients’ manufacturing site or their suppliers’ facilities in markets such as China, India and Vietnam. Clients are charged on a monthly basis, eliminating the financial burdens, severance requirements, and long-term liabilities associated with permanent hires.
SCRG occupies a distinct niche in the market that few competitors match by virtue of its ability to blend the benefits of direct hiring, consulting, and staffing into a single, streamlined service.
“Clients engage us to help them navigate complex manufacturing supply chains. By mitigating risks, upholding quality standards, establishing reliable suppliers, and accelerating product launches, our clients are able to secure a distinct advantage in the marketplace,” says Pete Mikhjian, chief revenue officer.
For instance, it can be challenging for an OEM, facing a quality issue while ramping up a new product, to navigate the differences in culture, language, time zones, and labor law. Particularly when faced with traveling personally to address these issues, which can be both financially burdensome and add to delays in productivity. Instead, SCRG offers a practical solution: with personnel already deployed on the ground, the company can leverage local expertise to tackle the quality challenges effectively.
The basis of the company’s success is its service model that offers clients the flexibility of accessing highly skilled personnel without the overhead costs and risks associated with traditional hiring, including the added benefit of requesting a replacement without incurring additional fees if a deployed person does not meet expectations.
SCRG has demonstrated the effectiveness of its model through consistent, high-impact deployments since 2008. Notably, two of the world’s largest blue-chip companies regularly engage with SCRG to deploy an average of four engineering and operations resources across eight countries each month. This impressive track record, coupled with client satisfaction results, underscores the value and reliability of SCRG’s strategic workforce solutions.
SCRG’s client base is as varied as its service offerings. Large corporations rely on the company to streamline their workforce and adapt to shifting product demands, helping to minimize financial risks and sidestep the pitfalls of direct hiring and traditional recruiting liabilities.

Startups, often constrained by resources, benefit from SCRG’s ability to accelerate new product introductions (NPI) by moving these products from initial concept to full-scale production, handling everything from supplier sourcing to factory audits.
The company’s ability to adapt and innovate in response to evolving client needs has solidified its reputation as a leading provider of supply chain talent solutions. As global supply chains continue to evolve, SCRG’s innovative approach remains a crucial asset for companies striving to stay competitive.
