Our Industrial supply division inspired by the supply chain industry's increased focus on customer service and value-added services. This impetus, plus sheer competition for market share, has led to such developments as vendor-managed inventory at OEMs and distributor alliances. As always within the distribution industry, there is frequent pressure to supply customers with the right products and services on time, and at the best price. Competitors and customers provide the drive to develop new management and operations techniques in response to dynamic market situations.
