Supply Chain and Conguration Services
Network deployment presents several possible obstacles that can be
alleviated or prevented with an effective, efficient supply chain and
strong vendor management capabilities. Improving your supply line and
ensuring timely delivery of properly inventoried and packaged material
cuts down on delay and expense, and helps ensure configuration and
recordkeeping standards are fully met.
Specialized Expertise to Meet Key Challenges
Supply chain management, however, is a specialized area of expertise
that many service providers either need to augment or do not have in-
house. If you have outgrown your supply chain operation, are struggling
to overcome supply chain problems, need to streamline your vendor
management, or you are planning a complex deployment or migration
project, our expert assistance can reduce unexpected problems and
measurably improve your outcome.
With over three decades’ experience acquiring, packing, shipping, and
delivering materials through our world-class manufacturing operations,
Fujitsu understands the complexities and challenges of managing a
nationwide supply chain. This capability, with its vast expertise and
resources, is also available as a service to support customer deployment
projects.

the communications network industry. We manage more than 235
vendors and distributors for our own supply chain, ship tens of
thousands of line items to customers all over North America, and

The Right Materials, When and Where you Need Them
How we Solve Your Deployment Supply Chain Problems
You may be all too familiar with adverse impacts from a lack of optimal
supply chain management or strained supply chain resources.
Managing multiple equipment vendors, integrators, and logistics is
time consuming and error-prone. Inconsistent quality creates delays
and adversely affects project outcome. Material shortages and lost or
missing equipment create roadblocks and delay completion. Preemptive
measures to offset unpredictable vendor deliveries or anticipate
possible future configuration options increase your cost of inventory
management. Lack of consistency and quality standards at deployment
time can adversely affect service quality after the network is turned up.
As a result of problems like these, your installers spend too much time
on-site performing integration and configuration tasks.
Fujitsu Suppply Chain and Configuration Services can prevent most of
these problems. We manage your vendors as your sole integrator and
logistics provider, saving you time and improving deployment efficiency
and quality. We also ensure that all components are delivered before
installation commences. Our skilled staff also provides re-configuration,
labeling and component integration service in a controlled factory
environment. With our operation behind you, you have peace of mind
knowing that field installation technicians have exactly what they need
on-hand—right when they need it.
The solutions available cover logistics/shipping, packaging, staging/
warehousing, integration, testing, and turn-up preparatory to field
deployment.
