Locally held stock is delivered to customers within 24 hours, and, impressively, products held internationally within four to six working days.
It is proven that departments traditionally spend 80% of their time sourcing products that account for only 20% of their total procurement spend. RS is focused on reducing its customers’ ‘total cost of product ownership’ by reducing the need to make multiple calls to various companies to source products, reducing supplier related administration and allowing for the consolidation of supplier bases. Through this process, procurement efficiency is improved and time is freed up to concentrate on the more important business decisions.
It is RS’s objective to offer its customers exceptionally high service levels with unrivalled choice, availability, support, dependability and peace of mind by providing fast, reliable and convenient delivery of the right product, the first time.
