Who this is for

Leaders of bill of materials and supply chain software selling to hardware makers, electronics brands, and EMS teams attending German trade fairs.

The situation

Trade fairs compress attention. Inboxes flood, calendars fill, and generic invites fail. Specific outcomes with credible proof and a small, low risk ask earn time on the calendar.

Outcomes to lead with

  • Lower component risk and faster selection of alternates
  • Better deliverability for critical parts across programs
  • Quicker joint decisions between engineering and procurement

Account selection for Germany

  • Exhibitors and speakers with active boards and programs
  • Roles in engineering, procurement, supply chain, and category
  • Public signals about obsolescence, lifecycle, RoHS, and REACH
  • Priority on DACH firms with complex multi site operations

Message framework

One outcome plus one proof plus one small ask

  • Outcome name the decision you improve risk, deliverability, or time to decision
  • Proof share a credential, a security stance, or a short case that can be verified
  • Small ask invite a brief on site workflow review during the fair

Positioning line

De risk your bill of materials by connecting live market insight to part choices and presenting approved alternates inside your current process.
