Streamlining supply chain management to reduce production cycles and drive aerospace innovation
Salient Motion, a leader in hardware and software solutions for the aerospace and defense industries, faced significant procurement bottlenecks that hindered growth. With supply chain challenges like extended lead times and reliance on overseas manufacturers, the company sought a unified logistics solution to enhance efficiency and mitigate risks.
By partnering with Cofactr, Salient Motion transformed its supply chain management. Using Cofactr's real-time risk analysis and streamlined BOM integration, the company significantly reduced production cycles to an average of three weeks—an unprecedented milestone in the hardware industry. This allowed Salient Motion to shift focus from logistics to innovation, building cutting-edge motion control systems for its diverse client portfolio, from drone producers to VTOL manufacturers.
“Cofactr changes things for the better for hardware companies,” said Vishaal Mali, Co-founder of Salient Motion. “It de-risks the supply chain and makes hardware manufacturing a much more compelling business to be in.”
With simplified procurement for hundreds of components and on-time deliveries, Salient Motion has turned procurement from a challenge into a competitive advantage, paving the way for continued growth and innovation in the aerospace and defense sectors.
