Custom, Solutions-Based Supply Chain Inventory Management

Managing your inventory is a balancing act. You need to maintain full availability of the parts and products you need without wasting time, space or money. As a partner for outsourced purchasing, we serve a large and diverse base of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and assembly plants.

We simplify your inventory processes by managing multiple vendor relationships on your behalf, helping you secure better pricing and avoid bottlenecks in your production process. Our inventory-management services make parts management more efficient and economical.

We don’t just look at C-part costs; we view inventory through the lens of your entire business and apply our trusted expertise to analyzing your existing processes. We negotiate directly with other manufacturers, eliminating that task from your domain. The aim is to create a holistic, solutions-based inventory management solution for your supply chain.
