Our infrastructure, real-time supply chain data, and expertise around the world ensures we can respond quickly to instant changes in the dynamic supply chain landscape and keep production on track.
Resilience is not one size fits all, nor is it a single rigid approach. It is an ongoing, evolving process that continuously assimilates lessons learned, responds to the current environment, and looks ahead to potential issues in the future.
We constantly test and develop our flexibility, visibility, and collaboration capabilities from procurement through last mile delivery. Doing so allows us to perpetuate de-risking using mitigation strategies for our customers, suppliers, and markets.
Partner with us to create supply chain resilience, then streamline and optimize your full product lifecycle to deliver full value.

Our supplier relationship management tools are built on Ivalua, allowing us to collaborate with suppliers on full end-to-end procurement, supply chain, and quality processes.
Our services meet the demands of most fulfillment networks in any region.
Agile capabilities in B2B, B2C, D2R, and D2C meet evolving end customer requirements while configure-to-order (CTO) postponement activities lower inventories, increase velocity, and ensure high fill rates to multiple channels.
Modern supply chains are complex, interconnected ecosystems where a single point of failure can cascade into significant operational and financial risk. In this dynamic landscape, effective decision-making strategies that bolster supply chain resiliency are a prerequisite for success.
Flex Pulse® provides advanced digital tools that transform raw data into actionable intelligence. With unprecedented visibility into your supply chain, you can identify potential risks and take proactive steps before problems arise.
Real-time visibility and advanced modeling transforms supply chain challenges into strategic opportunities, giving you the confidence to navigate uncertainty and drive business growth.
The Flex Pulse suite of intelligent supply chain tools is designed to optimize supply chain processes, enhance decision-making, and bolster resiliency in a dynamic global landscape:
Flex Pulse Actionable Insights provides robust data visualization and enables real-time supply chain management. The cloud-based intelligent software tool integrates feeds from more than 200 data sources to help you identify and navigate the most complex supply chain challenges.
We provide visibility down to the product level at any given factory. Stakeholders can access the same level of data precision and visibility whether they are physically located in one of our Pulse centers worldwide or logging in remotely through secure digital, mobile, or cloud-based technologies. This means our more than 7,000 supply chain professionals globally are always equipped with the insights they need to make intelligent decisions.
Actionable Insights continuously syncs, ensuring data collection and visualization that is as close to real-time as possible.
Should I manufacture my product in Mexico or Taiwan? What are my distribution and shipping trade-offs? Is the demand for my product short-term or long-term, and how can I optimize my delivery operations to accommodate demand flow? These complex calculations are often top of mind for every Flex manufacturing customer.
Flex Pulse Network Design enables Flex and our customers to manage high-level supply chain network design. The tool creates forecasting scenarios based on current and future projections of multiple factors, including estimated inflation rates, crude oil prices, labor costs, and other macroeconomic indicators. Our data-driven analyses and recommendations empower our customers to configure the optimal manufacturing and distribution footprint for unique profiles and distribution channels.
A significant portion of supply chain risks manifest in the design and product testing phases but are often overlooked until later in the planning and building phases. At this point, they can cause major complications and drastically increase costs. That’s why true supply chain resiliency requires early, proactive risk assessment rather than waiting until it’s too late.
Our Flex Pulse Risk Management automated analytics tool provides clear, quantifiable, and actionable insights into the part-level, identifying supply chain risks early in the lifecycle. The tool automatically assesses quotes, generates reports of potential risks, and provides recommendations for risk mitigation strategies.

As we strive to reduce environmental impacts throughout our global supply chain, we also hold our supplier network to the highest ethical standards while providing them with ongoing guidance and training to further the reach of our sustainability efforts.
We are the supply chain partner you can trust. We screen 100 percent of new global suppliers on social and environmental criteria to verify safe working conditions and ethical and environmentally responsible operations.
As part of our sustainability strategy, we are committed to 50 percent of our preferred suppliers setting greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction targets by 2025, and 100 percent by 2030.
To support this goal, we developed an award-winning Supplier GHG Emissions Reduction Program as part of our broader supplier sustainability program. We share knowledge, resources, and best practices to help preferred suppliers measure emissions, set emissions reduction targets, and ultimately deepen our relationship in the spirit of accelerating sustainability.
One of the hallmarks of our sustainability strategy is participation and leadership in global organizations committed to ensuring responsible operations and mitigating climate change.
Our sustainability goals align to four of the UN Development Sustainable Goals (UN SDGs).
As a member of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), we have GHG emission reduction targets in line with what the latest climate science deems necessary to meet the Paris Agreement’s goals. We are a founding member and active participant in the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI), which promotes mitigating social and environmental impacts of extraction and processing of raw materials in supply chains.
Our goal is to accelerate sustainability throughout the product lifecycle. That is why our reverse logistics and circular economy services move beyond traditional individual repair, refurbishment, or recycling solutions.
