Electronic Parts Management Solutions

Develop a healthy electronic components supply chain that boosts productivity, cuts costs, and mitigates risk.

Throughout the lifecycle of your products, managing the electronic components has become increasingly challenging. Component lifecycles are evolving at different rates due to constant innovation in the industry. Designers must select electronic components that meet diverse criteria, including technical, environmental and export compliance, financial and market requirements. Supply chains are volatile due to changes in environmental and export compliance regulations, economic conditions, counterfeit risks, geopolitical risks, product change notices (PCN) and end of life (EOL) notices, and disruptive and rapidly improving technology.

Electronic Parts Management Solutions help you to master these challenges, from design, to production, to sustainment. Our solutions provide access to electronic component technical specifications, pricing, stock availability, predictive lifecycle, environmental and export compliance, and counterfeit risk information. Our solutions can facilitate the integration of electronic parts information into your internal enterprise systems, enabling your engineers to make better-informed decisions to support a healthy electronic components supply chain.

Underpinning each of our solutions is the world’s most accurate and up-to-date electronic, electro-mechanical, and fastener component database with over 1.1 billion parts, with daily updates. No other provider offers unbiased coverage of electronic components with the depth and breadth of industry-leading cross-references, rich technical attributes, lifecycle risks, supply chain management risks, environmental compliance risks, current and historical datasheets and more.

Customer Testimonials

“A lot of companies ‘obsolete’ their way to profitability. We don’t do that... When a competitor obsoletes a part, customers can run into inventory shortages for that part. Our customers know that if they come to the TI site, they’ll find a cross.”

– Mike Hastings, Director, Content Syndication, Texas Instruments

“With the S&P Global data, we can gain a true picture of the composition of the product from top to bottom, so we can instantly and confidently tell the import/export country and customers whether or not we comply. We reduced delivery time of compliance documentation about RoHS and REACH from weeks to less than 2 days. That’s an estimated 86 percent increase in efficiency.”

– Kimara Chin, Data & Business System Manager, Trimble
