Cost of ownership - Revealing the hidden cost of passive components - a study by Philips.
Total cost of ownership is a valuable tool for exposing all non-material costs incurred by a product throughout its life for highlighting areas where savings can be made.
The material cost of passive components is only around 3% to 7% of the cost price of modern electronic equipment.
But since they make up around 70% of the components used, the non-material costs e.g. purchasing, logistics, warehousing and material handling can be substantial.
Detailed cost of ownership studies by Philips show that the non-material, often hidden costs, in passive components are at least equal to the full component list price. Clearly, efforts to reduce material hidden costs offer greater benefits than simply shopping around for the cheapest products.
The key to reducing these costs is to from close partnerships between the purchaser and fewer suppliers.
X-On facilitates supplier reduction by offering services including kitting and full turn key management.
