CPI's purchasing teams add value by selecting and acquiring the most optimal and cost effective materials from carefully selected ISO 9001 approved suppliers, a crucial step in ensuring quality, efficient and on-time delivery.
Vendors are managed within our comprehensive ERP system with further controls from a vendor appraisal and monitoring system. Customers are helped to improve their overall materials reliability, availability and flexibility. This results in a more efficient supply chain and ensures customers receive the lowest cost without compromising quality or speed. CPI also manage the potential implications of obsolescence.
Materials management and excellence in the area of inventory management is essential for the reduction of lead times. This can only be implemented with the assistance of specialist procurement software. This system has the distribution information of over 1000 worldwide component distributors and manufacturers, therefore enabling the tracking of difficult to source parts, schedule their arrival and track their movement on the factory floor.
