Case Study: Laser Diagnostic Equipment Manufacturer

Case Study: Laser Diagnostic Equipment Manufacturer

The Challenge: A Laser Diagnostic Equipment Manufacturer was buying a “catalog” off-the-shelf lens for years…assuming they were getting the lowest price. When the part was suddenly “out of stock” with out competitors, they were told that would be a 12 week lead time on the new order.

The Solution: After calling Supply Chain Optics, the Laser Diagnostic Equipment Manufacturer learned that we could reverse-engineer the lens at a lower cost and have it for them in 8 weeks.

The Result: We now stock the lens, and the Laser Diagnostic Equipment Manufacturer is saving money and has access to lens at a moment’s notice.
