Streamline Your Supply Chain

In today’s global marketplace an efficient supply chain is essential.

The challenge of planning, deployment, and logistics can distract IT teams from delivering maximum value. Our comprehensive supply chain services ensure your IT estate is handled seamlessly, covering tailored procurement solutions, stock holding and stock management, Bill and Hold solutions, device configuration services, best-in-breed domestic delivery services, and complex international logistics.

Our National Distribution Centre (NDC) delivers to 98% of the UK within 4.5 hours, and we ship in excess of 3.5 million items annually to over 170 countries worldwide. Our CDW Configuration Centre is at the heart of the NDC. Our highly accredited teams provide everything, from planning to technical support.

Supply Chain Challenges Inhibit IT Efficiency

1

Equipment Configuration

On-site configuration of new hardware and software is time-consuming, preventing your IT team from focusing on adding value to your business.

2

Lifecycle Management of Devices

Procuring, securing, and deploying a whole host of all IT devices, desktop PCs, tablets, and laptops takes valuable resources. End-of-life issues, such as data wiping and asset disposal, also take valuable resources.

3

Software Portfolio Challenges

Managing software, from usage to licencing compliance, licence costs, and differing user demands, across a complex software portfolio is time consuming and resource draining, and can jeopardise your provision of services.

Multiple Vendor Sourcing

Maximising supplier relationships through continuous evaluation and planning is crucial for providing industry-leading integrated technology solutions. However, managing multiple supplier relationships can be a time-consuming and often inefficient process.

That's why our dedicated Supplier Management team and Supplier Conformance team are here to streamline this process, ensuring that we maintain strong connections with our suppliers while optimising cost-effectiveness. By proactively assessing and planning, we are able to consistently deliver the best possible outcomes for our customers.
