Manufacturers lose billions of dollars every year by overpaying for electronic components. The problem is not simply poor negotiation. It is a structural issue: limited price transparency, fragmented supplier data, rising geopolitical risk, and accelerating demand across electronics-intensive industries.
In this webinar playback, Jim Frazer, Vice President at ARC Advisory Group, sits down with Martin Sendyk, CEO of Lytica, to examine why the traditional approach to direct-materials sourcing is no longer sufficient.
The discussion explores what real transactional data reveals about component pricing, how much money OEMs and EMS companies may be leaving on the table, and why sourcing teams need to move beyond manual benchmarking and opaque market signals.
Lytica is positioning sourcing as a system of intelligence. Its proprietary data platform, now embedded with agentic AI, is designed to function as a full Sourcing Operating System—helping companies identify overpayment, proactively manage supply risk, and accelerate time to market.
Whether your organization manages $50 million or $5 billion-plus in electronic component spend, this conversation offers a practical look at how data, AI, and sourcing intelligence are reshaping procurement performance.
Watch the webinar playback to learn how leading manufacturers are using Lytica to:
Eliminate unnecessary overpayment on electronic components
Improve visibility into real market pricing
Manage supply risk before it becomes a disruption
Shift sourcing from a reactive cost exercise to a proactive intelligence function
Accelerate procurement decisions and time to market
