Waldom Explores Why Small IP&E Components Can Have a Big Impact on Production
Waldom has published a new industry article, “IP&E Components: Small Parts, Big Consequences,” examining why some of the lowest-cost components on a bill of materials can create some of the highest risks for manufacturers and distributors.
The article explores how interconnect, passive, and electromechanical (IP&E) components play a critical role in keeping production moving. While these parts often receive less attention than semiconductors, shortages of connectors, relays, capacitors, switches, and other essential components can delay production, increase costs, and disrupt supply chains.
The article also discusses the hidden costs associated with component shortages, the challenges of replacing production-critical IP&E parts, and why inventory breadth has become increasingly important in today’s electronics market.
With more than 300,000 IP&E parts in stock, Waldom continues to help distributors access the components needed to keep production running and respond quickly to unexpected demand.
