CASE STUDY:
Green energy initiatives and tech projects require a skilled workforce, extensive procurement, and automation to achieve continual success. Given a current project already in place, the roofing manufacturer knew S2O was capable of these elements. Automation, procurement focused on cost reduction, and order fulfillment were best housed in one place.
The manufacturer wanted to pass off a prototype, a spec sheet, and estimated weekly demands with the results being turn-key.
S2O sourced hard-to-find components worldwide, developed work instructions, set up a complete work cell, and created ground-up automation for additional cost savings.
With past successes, Supply Source Options was able to leverage in-house resources to reduce procurement costs and develop and produce consistent quality.
Cost savings of more than 50% with efficient procurement and automation was achieved. Additionally, as a byproduct of automation, throughput increased fourfold.
Using “all-in” per-piece pricing, S2O delivered a solution that was easy to quantify.
The manufacturer was thrilled with the results and is actively working to outsource additional projects to S2O, such as solar wiring pass thrus.
