Enabling a Data Center Leader to Achieve First-to-Market Through Agile Supply Chain Execution
Background
A Critical Need for a Reliable Mexico Partner
A global data-center infrastructure leader (“the Customer”) sought a new strategic partner to stabilize its Mexico facility after experiencing chronic delays, repeated line-down events, slow U.S.-based decision cycles, and limited on-site alignment from incumbent suppliers.
