OEM and EMS customers
We help OEM and EMS purchasing teams source specified components for planned production, urgent gaps and continuing product support. The approved parts list, required quantities and build schedule guide the search. We then confirm purchasing and delivery conditions with the relevant customer contact.
We source specified parts for OEM and EMS production and maintenance. Approved part lists, urgent quantities and receiving requirements guide each order, with any change confirmed by the responsible customer contact.
We work from the manufacturer’s approved part numbers and production or maintenance plan. Sourcing follows the required quantities and dates, while any proposed change in specification or alternative part is referred to the customer for approval.
We follow the end customer’s approved parts list alongside the EMS build schedule. We identify the components needed together, keep delivery status clear by line and refer any unapproved substitution or specification change to the designated contact.
Identify the parts that keep a build from starting and the quantity needed first. Discuss whether an early partial delivery would help while other material follows its existing schedule.
When production moves earlier, later or to a different quantity, compare the new need with orders already placed. Clarify which lines need a revised delivery and which remain unchanged.
Older products may continue to need the same parts for manufacturing or repair. Keep the approved full code and document requirements on record, then assess each new source against them.
Purchasing, engineering approval and receiving may be handled by different people or companies. At the start of an order, identify who can approve a changed part or condition and what information the receiving team requires.
Vistime provides component procurement support. Product design and approval for the intended application remain with the responsible customer parties.
