Industrial Supply Chain


What We Do:
ATC's Industrial Supply Chain (ISC) Division provides Supply Chain and Integrated Supplier Programs to Industry leaders. Our services extend beyond the current paradigm of what a supplier/distributor provides for their customers. ISC works in partnership with our clients to achieve lower costs, increase Supply Chain efficiencies, and drive best practices throughout our client's organization.

Contrary to most Supply Chain Providers, ISC's Programs are solely based on our Client's needs. We do not force fit service deliverables into your organization's Supply Chain. This flexibility reduces the resources required by our Clients to manage an ISC Program, while still realizing the vast benefits of ISC's consortium buying power and the overall efficiencies of ISC's Programs.


In addition, the Industrial Supply Chain Division leverages our leading-edge IT technology. Our IT capabilities extend beyond the norm as we have experience in integration with virtually all major ERP systems. Our IT expertise has improved both our Clients and Suppliers operations via consultation and implementation of HTML, XML, and EDI ecommerce. Advanced IT capability is vital when system integration is required, and the ISC IT team is a market leader in the development and application of these technologies.
