3Com has named a former Nortel executive to head its supply chain management operations.
3Com tapped Tony Wang as vice president, worldwide supply chain. Wang spent nine years with Nortel,; most recently he was
managing director of Guangdong Nortel, a joint venture between Nortel and several Chinese networking companies.
Wang managed Nortel's manufacturing operations.
Wang, a 30-year industry veteran, will be based in Hangzhou, China. He will report to 3Com Executive Vice President Shusheng Zheng.
3Com recently named a new CEO to be based in China, where the company is most successful. 3Com replaced its CEO after a failed buyout by Bain Capital and Huawei.
Wang will attempt to integrate the company's two supply chains – one in China and one based in the United States – into a single global organization to deliver enterprise products. 3Com says the establishment of a worldwide supply chain will help the company reduce costs and improve operational efficiency.
Wang also spent more than 20 years with Alcatel in China and Taiwan.
