Avnet Abacus LogOn

Many customers are seeking a truly advanced logistics and supply chain offering from their suppliers. And the truth is, many suppliers find this hard to provide. That’s why we have looked to our own logistics expertise to create our LogOn service using our experienced team of consultants and analysts.

Our proven model not only provides a transparent supply chain and seamless logistics solution but also grows a strong bond between customers and their suppliers.

Avnet Abacus LogOn offers a wide range of advantages on all sides of the electronic components transaction. These include tailored supply chain models; class-leading business-to-business solutions that drive process improvement and value-added processing; and supply chain visibility for enhanced performance and metrics.

Strengthening relationships through strategic customer fulfilment

Have you noticed that as you grow your network (EMS, OEM, and across regions) your supplier is finding it harder to satisfy all your supply chain requirements? It may be that they simply do not have the structure, systems or resources to deal with your growing volumes and complexity. Or perhaps they simply lack the capacity or expertise to satisfy your supply chain demands. None of this needs to be a problem.

LogOn has been designed to provide a solution to all these issues and more. Built on the systems, backbone and scale of our parent company Avnet, a €25bn organisation, and our EMEA dedicated IP&E market leader Avnet Abacus, LogOn enables you to maintain the close relationship you have with your
supplier, but also enjoy all the benefits of an established supply chain network.

In essence, LogOn can:

Simplify the complexity associated with multi-site, multi-region, multi-mode supply chain networks
Give you the reassurance of a dedicated supply chain flow, with total visibility up and downstream
Provide exceptional levels of service and value-adds
Resolve resource and warehouse capacity issues by consolidation and near-shore warehousing

Most importantly, we can provide you with a segregated pipeline within Avnet Abacus and within your supplier. Quantities can be reserved for you alone, with no distribution based on FIFO/priorities, thanks to the separate pipeline.

It’s the details that make the difference

We’ve designed LogOn carefully, not just to make life easier for you and your supplier, but also to make business through the supply chain faster, more reliable and ultimately more cost-effective.

Our in-house expertise and focus provide a range of advantages that many suppliers would struggle to provide on their own.

These include:

A dedicated structure for customers
A flexible, resilient and customised supply chain model
Risk mitigation at a material level
Continuous process review, advanced reporting and KPI management

In essence, it's a three-party partnership, which maintains direct contact between you and your supplier regarding price negotiations, new design-in and technical support.

Visibility and traceability throughout the supply chain are obviously essential. We make sure this is maintained end-to-end so you can track products and their availability at all times. This also allows us to offer comprehensive monitoring and reports, providing:

Inventory flexibility and proximity – dynamic inventory profiling against low-turning materials
Inventory balancing within the EMS network – flexibility of build location
Support in case of escalation from a dedicated Sales Team

Our onboarding process is also remarkably straightforward. Using the existing connection between you and your supplier we build a rapid and robust system that expands the supply channel model. If you’re already a LogOn customer and we’re adding a new supplier this becomes ‘plug and play’ once commercial parameters are agreed.

Easing growing supply chain worries

Background

We were introduced to a Tier 1 automotive supply customer by a large manufacturer of electronic components who felt the supply chain was becoming too complex. The customer has a global footprint with six locations in Europe and 10 items equating to almost €1 million total volume. A key challenge that needed to be addressed in the handover package was that that supply had to be through a separate SAP channel to keep prices confidential and ‘ring fence’ the goods.

Solution

Our LogOn Team created a new hierarchy in our segregated channel for the business. We then drew on the expertise of a number of Avnet Abacus teams such as Asset, Product Marketing, Warehouse, Operations, EDI and Supply Chain Solutions. We assigned the client a dedicated LogOn Inside Sales and Key Account Manager and supported the six European plants with local account managers. The comprehensive package covers logistics concept, EDI connections, buffer stock, labelling, forecast processing, support in case of escalations, the handling of the data flow and a segregated material flow.
