Our services are not restricted to managing the products we supply; we can also manage second-tier suppliers to streamline your supply chain.
As an example, BOC has taken out substantial cost from the supply chain of a major automotive manufacturer. We manage their 45 second-tier vendors of non-production consumables who supply 10,000 individual part numbers across multiple plants.
