CASE 01 / Consumer Electronics

Domestic Alternative for Main-Control MCU

Cost down 18%, lead time cut by 3 weeks

Key results Cost down 18%, lead time cut by 3 weeks

The challenge

The main-control MCU factory raised prices for two consecutive quarters, and lead times stretched from 12 to 26 weeks. Peak season meant no stock-outs — and no time for a redesign.

Our solution

We compared packages, clock speeds, peripherals, Flash/RAM and temperature ranges across 6 candidates, shortlisted 2 PIN-to-PIN compatible parts, and provided free samples — software regression and peripheral testing done within a week.

CASE 02 / Industrial Control

Global Sourcing for an EOL Interface IC

Line recovered, million-level stoppage avoided

Key results Line recovered, million-level stoppage avoided

The challenge

The EOL announcement left the customer with open orders still in delivery. Redesign cost and schedule were both unacceptable.

Our solution

Activated global distribution channels, located two traceable stock lots within 72 hours with inspection records archived; provided a long-term alternative with a validation checklist for the next hardware revision.

CASE 03 / Smart Hardware

One-Stop BOM Management for 200+ Parts

Procurement cycle down from 5 days to 1

Key results Procurement cycle down from 5 days to 1

The challenge

Each unit carried 200+ part numbers spread across 9 suppliers. Every batch meant repeated quoting, comparison, chasing and reconciliation — procurement was drowning in trivia.

Our solution

One quote for the full BOM, consolidated supply and unified lead times; buffer plans for long-lead parts and cost-down alternatives where substitutable — procurement talks to one dedicated helper only.
