Efficient Procurement for Manufacturers & OEMs

What “Efficient Procurement” Means (and why it matters)

Efficient procurement compresses cycle times, lowers TCO (total cost of ownership), and reduces risk—without sacrificing quality. We centralize supplier discovery, RFQs, should-cost analysis, APQP/PPAP/FAI, SRM, contract management, and ERP/EDI into a single, measurable process.

Our 3-Step Process

1. Requirements & Consulting

   Upload your drawings/BOM. In a short engineering call we fix materials, tolerances, finishes, inspection plan (FAI/PPAP/APQP), packaging, Incoterms, and customs objectives.

   Outcome: Technical clarity for a binding offer.

2. AI Matching & Quotation

   Algorithms select the right factory, optimal machine, best price across 120+ verified partners in Switzerland/EU/Asia—by capability, certification, capacity, and lead time.

   Outcome: Pricing in seconds with cost drivers, delivery windows, and risk options (dual-source, safety stock).

3. Procurement & QA in Switzerland

   We run production, import, customs, testing, and warehousing to on-time delivery. Choose duty-paid or bonded storage; call-off within 5 working days is contractually guaranteed.

   Outcome: Predictable quality, audit-ready compliance, stable lead times.

Capabilities You Can Plug In Today

• Supplier discovery & onboarding: KYC/AML, NDAs, capability audits, pilot lots

• RFQ & cost engineering: DFM/DFMA, should-cost, TCO/lane analysis, multi-quote comparison

• Contracts & governance: framework agreements, blanket orders, SLAs/KPIs, price-review clauses

• Operational quality: APQP/PPAP, PFMEA, MSA, FAIR/FAI; CMM, SPC/CPK, COC/COA

• ESG & compliance: REACH/RoHS, conflict minerals, origin/preference (REX/EUR.1)

• Digital integration: ERP/EDI/API (SAP, Oracle, MS Dynamics, Infor), automated orders/ASNs/receipts/QC/serials-lots

Logistics & Customs (Switzerland-centric, globally connected)

• Customs clearance: imports/exports, HS codes, BTI support, NCTS/T1, IOR/EOR via licensed partners

• Bonded (OZL) warehousing: duty/VAT deferment, re-export without Swiss VAT; supervised kitting/labeling in bond

• Inventory strategies: VMI/consignment, safety stock, JIT/JIS replenishment

• Availability: Standard components from Swiss stock with no MOQ; 5-day call-off guaranteed

What You Can Source Through Us

• CNC machining & turning (Al 6061/7075, stainless 1.4301/1.4404, tool steels, brass/copper)

• Sheet metal & fabrication (laser, bending, welding, PEM)

• Injection molding (ABS, PC, PA6/66, POM, PEEK, PTFE), die casting, extrusion

• 3D printing (SLS, SLA, MJF, DMLS) for prototypes & bridge builds

• Surface treatments (anodizing, hard-coat, powder coating, zinc/nickel, passivation)

• Electromechanical assemblies, kitting, line-ready packaging

Industries served: automotive (IATF 16949), aerospace (AS9100), medical (ISO 13485), electronics (IPC-A-610), industrial machinery.

Commercial Models & Regions

• Project pricing with transparent cost-to-serve (freight, duties, QA, storage) and should-cost benchmarks

• Framework/blanket orders with call-off, SLAs/KPIs, and stability clauses

• VMI/consignment programs for critical SKUs

We sell and ship with consistent purchase/cost logic across Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein, Belgium, and Africa—with agreed price/lead-time service levels.

KPIs We Own with You

• OTIF (on-time, in-full) & lead-time stability

• PPM/DPPM, NC closure time, first-pass yield

• TCO vs baseline (cost-to-serve reduction)

• Inventory accuracy & forecast adherence

• Supplier OTD and capacity readiness
