Just-In-Time (JIT):
By using JIT in our assembling process, Astrex reduces customer inventories and lead times and increases production cycle efficiency. This ensures that your product does not arrive too early or too late to negatively affect production.
Our Product Managers interface with both manufacturer and customer to determine delivery requirements. They closely review forecasts and provide products to the customer on an “as needed” basis, avoiding production flow interruptions.
Consignment Inventory:
Astrex consigned inventory program affords our customers the ability to maintain bonded inventory. This can be physically located in our warehouse or at a customer’s facility. The inventory is owned and managed by Astrex until it is actually used. Automatic replenishment upon usage ensures that desired inventory levels are maintained, thereby guaranteeing availability of inventory without the associated carrying cost, as well as minimizing lead-times.

Dock-To-Stock:
With Dock-to-Stock, specific quality and packaging requirements are met before the product is released. The pre-qualified product is shipped directly into our customer’s inventory. Dock-to-Stock eliminates the costly handling of components, specifically in receiving and inspection and enables product to move directly into production. Astrex is a military qualified, value added distributor, under Mil-Spec 790D, with inspection to Mil-I-45208. This, combined with our ISO 9002 certification, ensures quality in the products we provide.
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI):
EDI is the computer-to-computer exchange of intercompany business documents in a standard format. Instead of relying on paper, telephones, facsimile and the mail to exchange information, EDI trading partners exchange data directly between computers. EDI reduces cycle time, increases information accuracy and reduces cost. Virtually any business transaction can be handled through EDI.
