Top partners have made up to $1.9 million from their excess inventory.

Stop managing suppliers. Start managing outcomes.

Sometimes an inquiry opens a door you didn't expect. At SIE Connect and GREENCHIPS, we talk to a lot of companies about excess inventory and component sourcing.

But sometimes, the conversation reveals something bigger: a manufacturing challenge that goes beyond stock. And that's where our network creates additional value. When we identify a manufacturing need, we can connect the right companies with the right production partner.

In this case, that partner is our subsidiary, Qualis Electronics. Qualis offers end-to-end EMS, from BOM sourcing and PCB assembly to final box build. Nearshored in Europe (Serbia), which means shorter lead times, same time zone and a supply chain that doesn't depend on the other side of the world.

What we hear most from our partners: one partner for the full process – less complexity, less back-and-forth. Cost efficiency without the quality trade-off. And resilience, because “just in time” from overseas isn't a strategy anymore.

We don't push Qualis on everyone. But when the fit is right, it genuinely changes how companies operate.

If you're re-evaluating your EMS setup or just curious whether nearshoring could work for you – we're happy to make the introduction.
