First, common problems in the delivery time management of domestic connectors
Raw material supply fluctuation
Domestic connectors often face instability in the supply of raw materials such as plastics and metals during the process of replacing STM and other brands, leading to fluctuations in delivery schedules.
Production plan and scheduling conflicts
Domestic manufacturers may encounter delays in delivery when receiving bulk orders if production planning is not reasonable, which can affect the progress of customer projects.
Inconsistent quality control
Some domestic manufacturers lack a complete process in quality inspection, leading to increased rework and defect rates, which indirectly extends delivery times.
Insufficient logistics and cross-regional collaboration
If the delivery of domestic STM connectors lacks a perfect storage and logistics coordination, it may cause delivery delays, especially when supplying in different places.
Solution
Establish a diversified raw material supply system
By introducing multiple high-quality suppliers and pre-arranging materials, we can reduce the risk of relying on a single channel and ensure timely supply of raw materials needed for production.
Optimize production scheduling and flexible manufacturing
By leveraging a digital production management system, dynamically adjust production capacity allocation, improve order response speed, and ensure stable delivery schedules.
Strengthen quality control and full-process monitoring
Refer to the strict quality standards of the original STM factory, increase process inspection links, reduce the rate of rework, and ensure smooth connection between production and delivery.
Improve logistics and delivery management
Establish cooperation with local logistics and regional warehousing service providers to achieve rapid response and enhance the delivery reliability of domestic substitutes.
Domestic connectors are rapidly improving their process level and market share under the drive of international brands like STM. Delivery time management is a critical link that must be addressed in the domestication process. By optimizing the supply chain, enhancing production management levels, and strengthening quality and logistics control, domestic STM connectors are fully capable of meeting and even exceeding customer demands in terms of delivery cycle and reliability.
