Supply Chain
Eliminate 100 Part Numbers From
Your Materials System
Bendix will purchase, schedule, receive, inspect, inventory
and assemble all the components needed to build your
modules. Working with you, we will eliminate between
30 and 300 part numbers — and maybe even a few troubling
suppliers — from your system. That means you will
have more time to negotiate long term contracts with other
key suppliers and possibly eliminate poor performing
ones as well. All of this helps to strengthen your
competitive advantage.
By purchasing modules directly from Bendix, you can take
advantage of our significant and ongoing investments,
innovations and specialized professional capabilities...
capitalizing on benefits that are customarily very expensive
and time consuming to develop and maintain.
A Module Price That Is Often 5% Lower
Than Your Current Material Cost Alone
Our focus allows us to take significant material cost
out of your vehicle or chassis by using large- or small-scale
modules. Combined with our competitive conversion costs,
our price to you is typically below what you are currently
paying for material alone.
Our modules group consists of 20 seasoned professionals
focused on all facets of module design and production.
In addition, we are supported by a team of cross functional
Bendix representatives responsible for supporting the
design, validation, manufacture and shipment of modules to
a host of customers.
Immediate short-term financial payback and project
justification can be achieved. Labor savings, shop
floor space savings, reduction in warranty/scrap/rework
and reductions in inventory become “gravy” to the
payback equation.
Typical Cost Reductions Range
From $50,000 to $250,000 Per Year
Our focus on efficient design and manufacturing allows us to
offer yearly product innovations and/or cost reductions
to you. Although the amount per year varies by project,
each module agreement will contain measurable
productivity clauses to continually help you lower the cost
of your vehicle.
