Kanban

A pull based system is often the optimal solution when demand is constant but relatively uncertain. Avnet's Kanban solutions were developed to provide an alternative to traditional push-based replenishment techniques

Through the innovation of this solution, we add considerable value by reducing on-hand inventory, simplifying order management and fulfilment with shorter cycle times for material replenishment.

Consignment

Avnet's consignment solutions help our customers meet their goals of swift and reliable replenishment with a delay in ownership until actual point of consumption.

A carefully designed consignment solution can provide transparency of inventory availability and security while improving your working capital management.

VMI

Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) allows Avnet as a key supplier to reduce a customer's administrative effort in the replenishment of its components.

Avnet, using the proper forecast visibility, current stock levels and consumption transparency, determines the replenishment quantities to ensure the inventory needed for production is delivered as required.

Forecast

Avnet's Forecast Management solution responds to the needs of our customers: assurance of supply and a corresponding level of agility. We help by providing easy-to-use protocols to share forecast data, assist to validate the information; flagging any exceptions, and identify market / sector changes in demand

At Avnet, we share the common goal of providing the most accurate input to ensure that when material is needed - it is available - reducing any supply base risk.
