Optimizing the Supply Chain

Having strong supply chain relationships is critical to General Microcircuit’s ability to support our customers with the solutions they need. We strive to achieve the most highly effective supply chain management in the industry. The result is reliable inventory, overall Bill of Material cost improvement, smooth process operation, and decreased time-to-market. Our supply chain management processes are carefully developed and closely monitored to also insure that quality is never sacrificed.

GMI utilizes a fully-integrated Supply Chain Management System to control the Bill of Materials (BOM), Supplier’s Data, COG, Material Resource Planning (MRP), Test Results, Scrap, and Quality Control (QC). In addition, an Inventory Management System is used to monitor every component that is in our warehouse. With onsite inventory controls, we can easily evaluate levels for more efficient planning and quick response to customer needs.

Our supply chain management professionals continually evaluate the specific mix of our customer’s product assembly. We utilize both local and global resources to explore alternative sources for components, electro-mechanical and fabricated parts. Our goal is to optimize the supply chain, obtain the lowest costs, and meet delivery deadlines. The close relationships they develop with our supply chain ensure fast procurement and uninterrupted supply resulting in prompt delivery.
