As part of the innovative Re: solution, Trade Wings’ Marketing and Procurement Services enhance service delivery and lower material costs. Our intelligent trading capabilities enable:
- Just-in-time inventory strategies that significantly lower network capital-to-revenue ratios;
- Proactive supply of high-value and hard-to-find components and finished goods at significant cost savings;
- Strategically timed purchases and selling of excess inventory to secure high-value return; and
- Improved needs forecasting and asset management.
Trade Wings’ market trading capability can be fully integrated into any reuse strategy. When a request to buy is submitted, Trade Wings quickly identifies available inventory — both internal and external — to supply the demand. Unfulfilled items are instantly routed to our on-staff procurement experts, who search the global marketplace for the safest, most cost-effective supply sources.
We can also facilitate the efficient selling of excess inventories. Oversupply notices can be transmitted automatically to our sales team. The surplus is strategically placed in the global marketplace, with sales timed to maximize selling prices and avoid flooding the market. Skilled buying and selling in the open market extends your ability to minimize excess and avoid shortages.
Network Expansion Support
When there is a rise in demand for material to support a network expansion, we can source the material more quickly than traditional supply channels because of our in-depth knowledge of multi-vendor products and visibility into the open market. Trade Wings’ marketing and procurement solutions use real-time market intelligence to help meet your network expansion needs efficiently.
Open Market Consolidation
Only Trade Wings offers a consolidated and expanded view of the open market, replacing multiple brokers with a single source. Our direct relationships with Telecom manufacturers and carriers give us visibility into their parts stores. In some cases we even assist with managing their inventories. We maintain an active database of our customers’ material as well as a database of open-market material.
