Your Problem
You don't want to hold a lot of inventory, because it's a risk to your bottom line, because you experience an Engineering Change notice that leads to part obsolescence, or maybe both!
Our Solution
JIT Delivery (Just-in-Time) - We understand that inventory can be a bad word. We can reduce your risk by holding inventory for you. We are the experts in rapid component modification, and since we have to build and ship parts so quickly, we don’t hold finished goods: we stock component parts and build each product to-order. This gives us the flexibility to provide the exact part you need, right when you need it. This also protects you from obsolescence that can be caused by an Engineering Change Notice. If you’re holding your own inventory or have an in-plant store solution, each time a design changes, the finished parts on your shelves become unusable. Since we aren’t holding the finished good, if your design changes, we simply change the assembly of the component parts.
The Benefit To You
You no longer need to keep a large inventory of finished parts to shorten lead time. Let us hold the inventory for you! With 48 hour turnaround on custom connectors, we can support JIT delivery better than anyone else. And since we assemble the parts when you need them exactly the way you need them, we can eliminate your risk of obsolesce.
Your Problem
You can't wait for long lead times and want reserve inventory that's ready for you.
Our Solution
Bonded Inventory - You may be considering an in-plant store or a shared pool of inventory to ensure that you have parts when you need them. These solutions will still be affected by obsolescence caused by an Engineering Change Notice and don’t fully protect your supply chain. Our bonded inventory program will allocate inventory for you, not a shared pool, based on your forecasts. Your bonded inventory parts will be available for JIT delivery release.
The Benefit To You
Have the peace of mind of knowing that the parts you need are here for you, ready for quick delivery when you need them.
Your Problem
You need to place or track an order, but it's outside of normal business hours.
Our Solution

Our Solution
EDI: Electronic Data Interchange - Electronic Data Interchange, or EDI, is the exchange of business information from one computer to another using standardized data formats. It eliminates the need for paper forms through the mail or fax machine and can be integrated with any operating system. EDI is generally independent of a company's computer systems and EDI can take place between companies with completely different hardware and software. EDI has proven to speed up business processes and improve data accuracy.
