The Challenge: Managing a Large Amount of C-Parts

Komax Wire develops and manufactures innovative wire processing systems for international customers in the automotive, electronics and appliance industries. The Swiss-based company is one of the market leaders and has offices in 60 countries.

A few years ago, Komax decided to modernize their C-parts management to streamline procedures and to better serve the technicians on the assembly lines. At that time, the company had 40 different suppliers for 2,000 C-parts. Managing the various C-parts was a full-time job for one Komax employee; additional resources from other departments were needed for procurement, invoicing and inventory management.

Our Solution: Comprehensive C-Parts Management

We offered a comprehensive solution to optimize Komax’s C-parts management. This includes the SmartBin technology that ensures lean inventory levels and automatic reordering, and thus avoids stock-outs. We now deliver high-quality C-parts to Komax production facilities in Switzerland, France, the USA, China, and Malaysia.

Customer Benefits

After assigning C-part supply and management to Bossard, the Komax employee who had previously worked on the task was able to commit to other important responsibilities within Komax. Other departments were also able to focus their resources on value-adding processes in Komax’s core business. By doing so, they increased their efficiency and productivity.

Additionally, by consolidating shipment and transport routes Komax can avoid 24% CO2 emissions per year.
