Case Study: Consignment Win for Robotics Firm

July 11, 2024

Background

Excess inventory is a challenge faced by many Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and Contract Electronics Manufacturers (CEMs).

One multinational robotics company in the UK was facing space constraints in their main warehouse due to an overstock of electronic components. With new projects in the works, they urgently needed to clear space while ensuring they minimised losses from their existing unused inventory.

Solution: Consignment with Cyclops Excess

Cyclops Excess offered the business a standard consignment solution, which was perfectly suited to address the company's needs.

An agreement was reached within 48 hours; all the necessary paperwork was signed, and collection was arranged. This fast-paced solution was ideal for the robotics company as it involved no storage fees, stock management fees, and there were no hidden or upfront costs.

Within one week, all parts were received, inspected, and advertised globally. Cyclops Excess successfully sold the majority of the inventory within three months and eventually purchased the remaining stock. The expertise of the Cyclops Excess team helped the company clear valuable space and generate significant revenue from inventory that would otherwise have remained dormant.

Customer Profile

Industry: Robotics

Size: Multinational

Key Operations: Production of cognitive, companion, and domestic robots primarily for commercial sale.

The Goal: To Reduce Overstock

The customer’s primary requirement was to free up warehouse space without compromising the value of their inventory. Minimum order quantities (MOQs) and cancelled projects had left them with a substantial overstock, impacting their liquidity. A minimum sale price was set on the package which ensured the company received a fair return. They are actually set to exceed this value.

Word of Mouth

The robotics company learned about Cyclops Excess through one of its other satisfied clients. Cyclops Excess surpassed the client's expectations with their consignment agreement, leading the client to highly recommend their efficient and effective service.

Upon initial contact, the primary requirement was clear: ensure a minimum return on their excess inventory. Cyclops Excess's reputation for flexibility and consistently delivering high returns  made them the ideal partner for this task.
