A vetted parts pool for the alliance

A flexible supply reserve for small-batch custom robots

A custom build is not mass production. Part choices change, quantities are small, and models turn over quickly. A supply chain built for volume does not answer that well.

The platform runs an open admission system for alliance suppliers. It can bring together 100+ parts companies, with a standard way to admit them, review them, and manage them over time, for small-batch custom robots.

Parts covered

The pool covers the core components of a robot, including:

  • Reducers
  • Servo motors
  • Servo drives
  • Force, vision, and environment sensors
  • Motion controllers
  • Batteries and power modules
  • Precision mechanical parts
  • Transmission components
  • Communication modules
  • End effectors

What admission checks

A parts company joins the pool only after this review:

Applicants

  1. 01Company credentials

    Business qualification, intellectual property, quality-system certificates, and past project record.

  2. 02Flexible supply

    Whether the company can ship small batches and many models, which is what a custom build needs.

  3. 03Quality control

    Process, inspection, consistency, failure handling, and after-sales response.

  4. 04Alliance rules

    Acceptance of scheduling, information sharing, and collaboration rules, and a willingness to serve global custom work.

Enter the pool

How the platform sits in the flow

The platform is a neutral coordinator. It does not manufacture parts, and it does not sell hardware to the customer.

  1. 01The integrator issues the BOM for the custom project.

  2. 02The supplier system matches alliance members by part type and supply capability.

  3. 03The supplier ships directly to the project integrator.

  4. 04The platform tracks delivery and helps switch to a backup supplier if supply fails.

What a supplier gets

  1. 01Global orders

    Parts demand from custom projects around the world.

  2. 02Alliance membership

    Membership in the international custom-robot alliance, which is easier to recognize in overseas markets.

  3. 03Industry contact

    Technical meetings and matching events with alliance integrators and machine builders.

  4. 04A growing pool of work

    As the platform's global work grows, admitted suppliers see more of it over time.

Note

The first reviewed core suppliers are already in the pool. The platform keeps admitting qualified parts companies.
