Supply chain transparency propels West Midlands manufacturer
PP Control & Automation | September 19, 2018
Maintaining strong relationships within the supply chain is essential for manufacturers; it can make, transform or break entire businesses. PP Control & Automation (PPC&A) has worked with leading global manufacturer of machine tools, Yamazaki Mazak for 25 years. This length of a partnership is not unheard of, but it is certainly rare.
Perhaps even more impressively, the business - who are one of the world’s largest suppliers of electrical control system solutions across many sectors - has reduced its lead times over a proportion of this period from six weeks to just six days, as part of a more agile business model.
