Global supplier network
Relationships across the Americas, EMEA and APAC, worked in parallel on the same request rather than one region at a time.
Keep your production moving
Component shortages can bring production to a standstill. Whether caused by supply disruptions, unexpected demand, allocation or end-of-life products, delayed deliveries create significant operational and financial risks.

Allocated · Obsolete · Last-time-buy
Six reasons a part stops being available
Every shortage that reaches our desk starts as one of these. The route out is different for each.
Allocated components
The part exists, but the manufacturer decides who gets it and when.
Long lead times
A lead time measured in quarters cannot carry a build schedule measured in weeks.
Obsolete and EOL components
The product is still in the field long after the component left the catalogue.
Unexpected production increases
Demand moves first, and the bill of materials has to catch up within the same week.
Supplier shortages
One supplier missing its commitment is enough to hold up an entire build.
Last-time-buy requirements
One order has to cover every unit you will ever build, and the window closes on a date.
Six reasons the request lands here
Rapid quotation
A request reaches a specialist rather than a queue, and comes back within 30 minutes on business days.
AI-powered sourcing
Market data narrows the field; a specialist decides which of those sources is worth pursuing for your part.
Quality assurance
Part numbers, date codes, origin and documentation are reviewed before anything is bought on your behalf.
Counterfeit risk mitigation
Sources are qualified first, and elevated risk profiles are flagged for additional testing where appropriate.
Dedicated account management
One point of contact who knows the programme, the part history and what you have already tried.
See how we verify what we buy
Supplier qualification, documentation and testing, step by step.
From part number to goods-in
Five steps, the same for a single urgent line item and for ongoing procurement support.
Understand your requirements
Part number, quantity, date code tolerance, packaging — and what has already been tried.
Identify qualified suppliers
Three regional desks work the request in parallel across the global supplier network.
Verify quality and documentation
Origin, traceability and paperwork are checked before we commit to a source.
Present competitive quotations
Price, lead time and source side by side, with the trade-offs between them stated.
Coordinate logistics and delivery
Packaging, customs and shipping handled to your specification, tracked through to goods-in.
