When it comes to sourcing service, Princeps find that there are several groups of parts that our customers are searching for.
First, there are obsolete parts. Older parts that are no longer manufactured by the Original Component Manufacturer (OCM), but for which our customers still have a demand. Traditionally the open or grey market has been the place to look for these parts, but the threat of counterfeit parts has made this a risky option . And this is where Princeps help our customers to mitigate their risks, they know about
- our world class AS6081 Counterfeit Mitigation Process
- our Open Market Supplier Risk Assessment
- our Princeps ASSURE service through which they can access this protection.
Next there are the hard to find parts, still manufactured by the OCM they may be in high demand, on allocation or just so nichey that they are not readily available. This is where Princeps find several of our assets come into their own
- our access to a global network of manufacturer-authorised sources casts the widest possible net in which to find these parts.
- our tenacity in tracking down elusive parts, always making one more call and trying one more source than our competitors
- our experience and knowledge of dealing with global sources, safely organising payments, shipping, customs and all the other issues facing importers
Finally there are the built parts. The combination of Princeps’ project management skills and our approved AS9100 sub-contractors provides the complete service our customers need.
