Consignment program provides 24/7 access to aviation chemical products
COMMERCE, Calif., Jan. 11, 2024("FDH"), a global provider of supply chain solutions for the aerospace and defense industry, announced today a new customer consignment agreement between FDH company Aerospheres and myTECHNIC, an independent MRO provider located at the Sabiha Gokcen International Airport in Istanbul, Turkey.
The agreement marks the inclusion of myTECHNIC into Aerospheres' expanding clientele that are realizing the advantages of its Chemical Care consignment program. Having served as a trusted provider of aviation-related chemicals to myTECHNIC for numerous years, Aerospheres will now consign a diverse inventory directly to the company. This arrangement enables myTECHNIC to directly access and utilize a wide array of chemicals, paints, adhesives, sealants, composites, general consumables, and various other products from stocked inventory.
myTECHNIC stands to gain substantial advantages through the consignment program. The benefits include decreased inventory holding costs, bolstered cash flow, streamlined freight expenses and purchasing administration, minimized scrappage rates, and the invaluable assurance of consistently available stock. This initiative epitomizes operational efficiency, fortifies financial stability, and underscores myTECHNIC's commitment to uninterrupted operational readiness.
"We're extremely pleased to have myTECHNIC join this program and see for themselves why MROs and airlines value our service, primarily because they know they have the stock they need when they need it each month," said Aerospheres Group President Paul Thompson. "While our customers know they can shop around or deal with manufacturers directly, it's a process that can significantly increase administration time and cost, while still not solving the issues of long lead times and unreliable delivery schedules. Our consignment programs simplify those complexities and help solve those problems for our customers."
"With this consignment agreement signed with Aerospheres, myTECHNIC has taken another important step to serve its customers better and make a difference in the industry," said Neslihan Uzun, Supply Chain Manager for myTECHNIC. "For this reason, this consignment agreement is extremely important for us."
