Our streamlined global procurement processes will dramatically lower your costs, improve your efficiency and grow your bottom line.

Materials Sourcing
If you’re not certain what a good supplier looks like, then you need to employ someone that does.

SUPPLIER SELECTION

Working with your Approved Vendor List (AVL) or through our own manufacturers, we will identify the target community and shortlist the best Original Design Manufacturers (ODMs) or contract manufacturers depending on your specifications.

SUPPLIER APPROVAL

We will rigorously evaluate the shortlisted manufacturers, quality assess each of their factories and processes, selecting our preferred company with your approval.

RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT

We will manage all aspects of the manufacturer relationship, including materials planning, quality assurance, pricing, and shipment of finished goods or component parts to your specified global locations.

Capacity Planning
Accurate Capacity Planning is essential for organisations to maximise the use of their resources while ensuring sufficient capacity to meet demand.

DEMAND MONITORING

We will analyse your historical and forecasted production data, along with your current run rates to help you maximise the use of your production resources while ensuring you have sufficient capacity to meet fluctuating customer demands.

FACTORY SOURCING

Our dedicated factory management team will globally source vendors that meet your production requirements as well as your cost and quality specifications.

CAPACITY ASSESSMENT

Each potential supplier to your business will be assessed to determine production output potential and ensure sufficient capacity to meet your future customer demand.

MULTI-VENDOR MANAGEMENT

We will minimise your supply chain risk by sourcing and actively managing additional manufacturers for your products. This ensures that your production capacity does not suffer in the event that your principal supplier is unable to fulfil orders

Quality Control
The more control you have over supplier inputs and processes, the less risk you have of customer returns, product failures and reputational damage.

VENDOR LICENSE AND CERTIFICATION

We will ensure that all suppliers to your business are fully licensed and certified, ensuring that all your products are sourced from quality, reputable companies.

SUPPLIER AUDITING

Our factory management teams conduct regular surprise inspections and a range of supplier audits covering systems, processes, products and documentation.

We can provide on-site production monitoring, reviewing areas such as production capacity and control points to deliver efficiency improvements through process engineering.

We will work with your own AVL, negotiate terms on your behalf, on-board the chosen supplier, manage all orders and provide you with a regular supplier performance report.

SUPPLIER CONSOLIDATION

We will consolidate your supply base and become your Alpha Supplier, managing numerous suppliers on your behalf, reducing complexity in your business and ensuring you only receive one invoice. We can also work with your own AVL and manage suppliers under your negotiated terms and conditions, assuming total management ownership of the supply base on your behalf.

Inventory Management
By removing complexities and making your inbound supply chain operate more efficiently, we free up your critical resources to focus on growing your business.

DEMAND MONITORING

VENDOR MANAGED INVENTORY (VMI)

We will finance the procurement of your inventory, manage and maintain this in our ownership and deliver it to your required locations on a Just-in-Time (JIT) basis, meaning you only pay for your goods on consumption.

INTERNATIONAL WAREHOUSING

Through our global network of wholly owned and third party warehousing facilities, we can store and manage raw materials and spare parts close to your factory or office locations ensuring you have short lead time access to inventory on demand. Along with standard warehousing, we can also deploy GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) and GDP (Good Distribution Practice) facilities.
