The
challenge
The effective management of suppliers is a crucial part of the production process. Businesses must develop a strategy to source and select providers that match their expectations on quality, delivery, and cost. This is key to building a resilient supply chain that can adapt to an ever-changing market.
Our client is an international manufacturer of optic and measurement components for the semiconductor industry. They approached our team to find a new European supplier of flexible printed circuit boards, which are required in chip manufacturing.
The
solution
Our team began by conducting research on potential candidates before opening discussions with them to clearly establish our client’s expectations for quality and delivery. After a series of on-site meetings, we carried out a technical evaluation of the suppliers’ performance. We then ran a comparative analysis before making a recommendation to the client.
A project management plan was subsequently developed to create the supply chain with the European provider. This was an exceptionally complex and lengthy process as it involved highly sensitive precision components that are manufactured by hand.
The benefit
delivered
Our technical expertise enabled us to secure a new European supplier that could establish short, effective delivery routes and provide maximum value to our client.
