Inventory and Risk Management

Maximum delivery reliability through effective inventory and risk management

Thorough analyses of critical components and long-lead items
We conduct thorough risk analyses for all components. This allows us to quickly identify which components require extra attention because they are critical or have long lead times. In this way, we avoid maintaining unnecessary costly inventory, manage risks, and ensure optimal flexibility.
Transparent agreements covering all aspects of logistics
With clear agreements on all logistical aspects—such as order and production volumes, packaging quantities, call-off schedules, initial delivery times, and inventory levels—we significantly reduce the required working capital and the associated risks. You always know exactly where you stand, both financially and operationally.
Maximum delivery reliability without unnecessarily expensive buffers
An efficient supply chain requires smart inventory management. We successfully minimize procurement risks and ensure continuity, so you don’t lose valuable capital to unnecessary or excess buffer stock. We quickly provide insight into the consequences of an upcoming overhaul or end-of-life (EOL) situation. This allows you to make an informed decision about future launches of new versions or products.
End-to-end supply chain management based on three strong pillars
From printed circuit board (PCBA) assembly and precision wiring harness assembly to complete module manufacturing: our experienced buyers ensure a seamless logistics process for every phase of your OEM product. By entrusting your operational procurement to Confed as well, we take the burden off your shoulders when it comes to carrying out operational procurement tasks.
