All the small things! To help companies keep costs under control in the current tough economic conditions, leading electrical and electronic distributor, Takbro, has introduced a new and comprehensive sourcing and supply service for the ancillary items that are used in almost every project, such as crimp terminations, cable ties, markers and labels. For users of the service, Takbro not only provides a convenient single source of supply for these small but essential items, it also makes full use of its huge buying power and international manufacturing contacts to offer the best possible prices consistent with dependable quality. In addition to standard products, Takbro also sources special, unusual and hard-to-find items. Packaging and delivery options can be matched to the customer’s exact requirements. For example, items can be supplied in special pack quantities, and even in the form of one-per-machine kits for OEMs. Fast deliveries are available on all options. “Engineers and even buyers often underestimate how much influence the sourcing of ancillary components has on overall project costs,” said Paul Bowler, Managing Director of Takbro, “but it’s always worth bearing in mind that a project can be as easily held up by a shortage of small parts as by the late delivery of a major item.” “In addition, it can take a lot of time to identify manufacturers of small items that combine consistent quality with competitive pricing, especially with the current rapid fluctuations in exchange rates. At Takbro, we do all of this work for our clients and, of course, they only have to deal with one supplier – us – rather than having to raise orders on many different suppliers. All of these things add up to provide our clients with significant savings in time and money, which is particularly important at the present time.”
