CANTON, MA--(Marketwired - May 12, 2015) - UNICOM Engineering, a leading provider of application platforms, deployment solutions and lifecycle support services for software technology developers and OEMs worldwide, today announced it has expanded its forward stocking network to include São Paulo, Brazil. This latest addition represents a growing list of countries where UNICOM offers expanded support with local stocking of spare parts and systems.
UNICOM's Forward Stocking Locations (FSLs) are an invaluable logistics tool when considering support on a global scale. FSLs provide a method for spare parts and systems to be stocked in a depot location within select countries for immediate dispatch without the impact of import delays on international shipments. With FSLs in Brazil, India and China, UNICOM Engineering now offers coverage to some of the most difficult countries in the world to do business. Currently, UNICOM Engineering has access to 700+ FSLs around the world and, as new regions are identified, the company can readily allocate resources to open new supply channels.
This latest FSL follows UNICOM Engineering's recent expansion into Prague, Czech Republic in late 2014. With additional FSL locations in regions such as Madrid and Turkey on the horizon, São Paulo demonstrates the company's commitment to expanding its coverage area to support customers worldwide. FSLs enable faster delivery of components for repair or servicing, and by stocking replacement parts within these countries, UNICOM Engineering is helping its customers enhance their reputations for responsive customer service.
"With customers operating throughout the world, it is imperative that we respond to their needs as quickly as possible," said Jeff Hudgins, vice president of marketing for UNICOM Engineering. "UNICOM Engineering's growing list of FSLs reflects our commitment to delivering exceptional business continuity for our clients and partners through a comprehensive logistics program that is a natural extension of their business operations."
