Wide range of materials supported
One of the unique benefits of working with Allied is to have one supplier that can support a wide range of direct and indirect materials. We have the expertise, capacity, and scalability to support everything from fasteners to electronic components, to made-to-print materials, and shop supplies through a single integrated VMI program.
“We haven’t had a single shortage or line stop since Allied started managing our fasteners and consumables 4 years ago. It’s been a tremendous improvement and has saved us immesurable time and money.”
