How to Overcome the Challenges of Supply Chain Disruptions
Shifts in the supply chain are felt in unpredictable deliveries and volatile pricing. Rockwell Automation® created the Preferred Product designation to help OEMs and end-users simplify product selection and build supply chain resilience in a constantly changing market. This designation was given to core architecture hardware that has broad applicability and is readily available. Filling orders with SKUs from the Preferred Products list can simplify the specification process (even across global applications) and help you meet project deadlines.
