Continuity
Shortage & obsolescence support
A shortage is expensive; an obsolescence notice discovered after the last buy window is worse. Semixis watches lifecycle data against your active bill of materials so decisions are made while options still exist.

Process
Every stage is recorded against the lot or programme, so a customer audit can follow the trail without asking us to reconstruct it.
- 01
Lifecycle monitoring on your BOM
Active programmes are screened against manufacturer product-change and end-of-life notices. When a part moves to NRND or last-time-buy, the desk reports it with the manufacturer's stated window, not an estimate.
- 02
Last-time-buy and bridge stock
Where a last-time-buy is the correct decision, we price the full remaining-life requirement, arrange bonded or hub storage where appropriate, and release against schedule so you are not warehousing five years of parts on your own balance sheet.
- 03
Alternate qualification support
Engineering teams receive cross-reference candidates with package, temperature and parametric differences called out, plus samples ahead of qualification. We do not propose an alternate that has not been reviewed against the original specification.
- 04
Shortage triage
Line-stop requirements are triaged first: allocation position, stock held in authorised channels, distributor inventory in territory, and where relevant, a documented upscreen or approved replacement. Every option is described with its provenance risk, and new and original parts remain the only parts we ship.
