Prototype
Many new designs utilize parts from previous
designs to speed development and reduce costs.
Production
During the production stage of the product,
the OEM provides “Through Life Support”
for the spare parts for the maintenance of
the product via its support network.
ISO Group supplements the regular OEM
support by offering an alternate source
for common parts on the equipment and by
offering a supply–chain direct from the
OEM’s original suppliers to the End User
wherever the supplychain allows.
Further, ISO Group has relationships with
many OEMs globally and supplies original
OEM parts for many vehicles, simplifying
the supply–chain for our customers.
ISO Group supports overhaul, repair
and re–manufacturing of both minor and
major assemblies and parts.
Life Extension
As products age, the OEM decreases its support
network both to save costs and to allow for the
introduction of new products utilizing new
technologies.
The End User often wishes to maintain their
equipment in serviceable condition beyond
the support period of the OEM and so they
begin the “Life Extension” phase of their
ownership.
Obsolescence
When products become obsolete, the OEM has
officially stopped supporting the maintenance
of the product.
ISO Group becomes a vital maintenance
supply–chain at this point when supply options
are most limited, even though the End User
must still maintain the highest level of quality
in its operations.
