Published 8 January 2021

If you’ve ever had to purchase RAM modules or SSDs consistently and in large volumes, then we’ve no doubt you’ve experienced your share of unpleasant surprises relating to supply or cost. This all leading to unexpected delays and out of control costs resulting in the pain of reduced profitability, performance sacrifices and key deadlines missed.  

In the worst-case, customer relationships that have taken years to form can be damaged in an instance by events outside of your control. That is until now.
