Let us speed up your assembly or fulfillment process through a variety of methods. In sequencing, we will deliver your material just in time in the proper sequence needed. In kitting, we will receive raw materials and combine unique items that need to arrive together. In sub-assembly, we complete the assembly process for parts that are inefficient to assemble at your location.
We pull orders in real time from your order-writing system; your orders can be received, processed and shipped within the same day.
At NorthGate, every problem report gets the same 100% inspection. Claims can include damaged or defective material, shorted quantities, incorrect part numbers or non-compliant packaging.
We know there are many reasons for part returns, which can present a difficult challenge to warehouse operations. Through the NorthGate Warehouse Management System (WMS), we offer complete management of your returned materials including inbound and outbound.
We ensure your products enter or re-enter the supply chain in the condition, packaging, and label format you require. Our packaging process includes stocking many styles and sizes of corrugated containers, internal dunnage (void-fill), labeling, bar coding, heat sealing in poly bags, stapling, stretch wrapping and pallet handling.
We evaluate parts and reclaim salvageable assets prior to scrapping, ensuring any remaining value to you is preserved.
We will work with you to develop a custom sort of your product based on your specified criteria and part attributes.
