Case studies

Inventory control is only one piece of the puzzle.

Energy companies like GE, Exxon and Baker Hughes are working harder than ever to manage costs in the oil patch and in subsea drilling operations. BAND-IT’s on-demand ordering and same-day delivery helps cut capital expenses while also enabling every stakeholder in the value chain to stay right on schedule.  

How do we help keep operations large and small running smoothly in the unpredictable world of the energy industry? Here’s how – and why!

Global Manufacturing and Distribution

Our on-demand strategy is successful because we’ve located manufacturing facilities and distribution hubs where the products are needed. That includes region such as Southeast Asia, Brazil, Mexico, Europe and of course throughout the U.S. Seems like a simple approach, but it takes a lot of resources to maintain. Through experience, we know that many of our customers need it, so we commit resources to same-day delivery through warehouse and consignment options that maximize availability, productivity and profits.

We'll take the inventory off your books. 

Flexible manufacturing allows us to tailor production on a day-to-day basis. For example, for one global energy exploration enterprise, BAND-IT ramped up production and increased regional inventory availability in anticipation of a spike in demand.
 

focus on what you do best

The money you save on inventory, warehousing and management can be applied to growing other areas of your business. A bonus is that we can be accountable for lot control, traceability and even on-site inspection that streamlines regulatory compliance.
 

Customization is our forte

As you know, every subsea project has its own set of challenges – customization is essential. We developed a new clamp, working through initial specification to product testing, in less than one week for one of our clients. That gave them the confidence to know they could move ahead with bringing their subsea reservoir monitoring device to market, and that BAND-IT could produce the high volume of special material, high performance clamps they need.
