Most people are unaware of the critical role that distributors play in the supply chain, particularly when it comes to electronic components. Numerous purchasers simply look at the price charged by manufacturers and consider the normally lower price of items direct from manufacturers to be sufficient reason to avoid suppliers. However, many end customers are unaware that distributors add value to the products they supply. This is especially true for electrical component distributors. Electronic components are required to be delivered on schedule by clients. Furthermore, the distributor should guarantee that the correct parts are provided to end users with strict documentation policies in place. They should also have the necessary skills to sell authentic components with more selections, manage excess inventory, and cut shipping costs, among other things.

We have open channels of contact with our suppliers about products that are on order or in transit. We provide information to our customers on product status and the

availability of alternative options. We understand that the customers do not want to design with obsolete components, so we label them as NRND(Not Recommended for New Design) or EOL (End of Life) and warn customers when this occurs. Furthermore, we provide product alternatives, including the level of risk associated with the substitute part so that clients may make an informed selection,” says Shashi Kumar Ganesh, Founder & CEO at VYTEC.
