RS helps e2v Technologies to innovate

e2v Technologies is a leading designer, developer and manufacturer of specialised components and subsystems for Electronic tubes and Sensors and Semiconductors. These products enable some of the world’s leading OEMs to deliver innovative systems for medical, science, aerospace, defence, industrial and commercial applications.

e2v depend on RS for the supply of a wide range of products from electronics components such as connectors to health and safety equipment.

With cost control being a crucial factor, e2v required a cost effective purchasing system which gave them total visibility of their company’s spend. RS immediately fulfilled the criteria with Purchasing Manager™, RS’s online purchasing solution.

Purchasing ManagerTM enables companies to set spend controls, workflows and gain transparency of expenditure with RS. The system notifies users immediately if a product is not available and searches for alternatives, which prevents costly delays and frustrating waits for essential products.

Significantly RS has helped e2v to save considerable time, empower employees with spend controls and reduce administration time and control costs with Purchasing ManagerTM.
