How Arrow Off-Road’s Full-Service Manufacturing Model Helps OEMs Reduce Lead Times, Improve Quality, and Simplify Their Supply Chain

Manufacturing Supply Chain - Arrow Off-Road CNC Manufacturing Canada

Off-road OEMs have traditionally had to work with multiple contractors to obtain the parts and components needed to fulfill their project objectives.

However, Arrow Off-Road’s full-service manufacturing model allows us to build, assemble, and deliver high-quality products faster and more efficiently all under one roof.

Here are three key areas where manufacturers can benefit from our one-stop production setup. 

Significant Reduction In Project Lead Time

    Working with Arrow Off-Road gives manufacturers several opportunities to shorten project lead times, enabling them to get their products to market sooner and stay ahead of the competition.

    For example, one of the primary concerns for OEMs is coordinating production across multiple contractors. This can mean hours spent on the phone scheduling deliveries of the parts from one contractor to another for downstream processing. In many cases, a late-arriving part can delay production by days or even weeks, leaving you far behind your business goals.

    Another critical aspect of optimizing project lead time is collaboration. It can be nearly impossible to get multiple contractors on the phone at the same time for a meeting, especially if different time zones are involved. 

    At Arrow Off-Road, every tech expert you need, from engineers, fabricators, and machinists to finishers and assembly professionals, is under one roof, making collaboration between different phases of the production process easy. 

    We coordinate and manage every aspect of the manufacturing process internally, and seamlessly align the machining, welding, and assembly workflows, reducing the number of contacts you have to manage to just one.

    Improved Quality Of Parts And Components

      Many precision machine and fabrication production houses claim to provide “quality” parts and components. However, the truth in our industry is that quality might be defined differently between suppliers. 

      In other words, using multiple contractors creates the risk that one or more of them might not provide the same quality assurance you need for your products. If one supplier allows substandard results to slip through to the next contractor, quality will be diminished during downstream processing. 

      By outsourcing the entire project to the capable hands of Arrow Off-Road, you’re assured of consistent quality standards throughout the lifecycle of the project. We hold a wide range of quality assurance certifications and employ robust testing programs that ensure consistent, reliable quality from start to finish, delivering long-lasting, dependable performance for your products. 

      A Simplified Supply Chain 

        We all know how external factors, most notably the COVID-19 pandemic, can severely impact the global supply chain, putting manufacturing at risk of experiencing severe delays or even halting projects altogether.

        Although the pandemic was thankfully a unique case, economic uncertainties, changing government policies, and other factors can constantly affect the free flow of goods between destinations, especially when crossing a land border, landing at an airport, or docking at a seaport is involved. If you use multiple contractors to process your products, your supply chain is at risk of breaking when transporting parts between numerous locations. 

        The answer to supply chain concerns is to use a one-stop fabrication and assembly solution, such as Arrow Off-Road. We maintain a strong inventory position on key grades of material and have reliable supplier partnerships with reliable companies that support fast turnaround.

        Using a one-stop supplier also virtually eliminates shipping costs between multiple suppliers, optimizing your budget and increasing profitability while shielding your project from external supply chain issues.

        Our mission is to ensure that, regardless of what happens in the outside world, your projects will keep moving forward on schedule without diminishing the quality or performance of the final product.
