Overview

Supplying manufacturing

Manufacturing procurement is a volume problem as much as a technical one: many low-value lines, several suppliers, and a maintenance team that needs parts on the shelf rather than on a purchase order. We consolidate that supply, standardise references across sites where it makes sense, and keep critical spares moving.

What shapes procurement here

  • Supplier fragmentation

    Multiple component suppliers consolidated into a single sourcing channel and document set.

  • Critical spares availability

    Agreed stock profiles for the components that stop the line when they fail.

  • Cross-site standardisation

    Common references across plants, reducing variant count and simplifying stockholding.

ManufacturingUnited Kingdom2024

Bespoke hydraulic power unit built to an existing machine footprint

Challenge
A 30-year-old press power unit was failing repeatedly, but the available floor area and existing pipework interfaces ruled out any standard replacement unit.
Result
The replacement unit was installed during a scheduled weekend. Oil temperature stabilised 14 °C lower than the original installation and unplanned press stoppages attributed to hydraulics fell to zero over the following year.

Bearing supply consolidated across four manufacturing sites

Challenge
Four sites bought bearings independently from eleven suppliers. Reference duplication was widespread, stock was uneven between sites, and unplanned purchases at premium prices were routine.
Result
Active references reduced by 31%, critical spares availability improved to 96%, and total bearing spend fell by 18% year on year without any change in specification.

FAQ

Manufacturing — common questions

Yes. We work from a common reference list across sites, which reduces variant count, simplifies stockholding and improves pricing through volume.
