Why Procurement Teams Choose Us for Multi-Brand Sourcing
by Bryan Hellman
When a single line item can stall production, the winning move is to consolidate complexity. Industrial Automation Co. lets you place one clean PO across multiple OEMs, receive verified parts fast, and keep operations on schedule—without juggling five vendors.

Real-world example
One PO, three brands, zero delays
A packaging plant needed a PowerFlex drive, Siemens I/O, and a Yaskawa servo amp after a weekend failure. We quoted all three, confirmed fit with maintenance, and shipped in-stock items the same day. The line restarted within 24 hours—procurement closed a single PO with unified terms and warranty.
When to use Industrial Automation Co.
Mixed-brand installed base and a goal to reduce supplier count
Legacy support needed without a rushed migration
Preference for tested, warrantied parts and clear documentation
Desire for one accountable partner instead of many vendors
