Find alternates for your riskiest parts with a no-cost assessment.

  • Your most at-risk partsThe parts that are EOL, NRND, single-source, or non-compliant, ranked first.
  • Drop-In A, B, or C gradingA is an exact equivalent, B has minor functional differences, and C needs re-qualification.
  • Lifecycle on every alternateEach alternate carries its own lifecycle status and forecast. You won't swap to a part that's already NRND.

Common Questions

What do the Drop-In grades mean?

Drop-In A is an exact equivalent. B has minor functional differences, and C has major differences that need re-qualification.

Are the alternates qualified for my product?

They're graded on form, fit, and function. Qualification for your design stays with your engineering team.

Can I name the parts to cover?

Yes. List them in the message field, or let the specialist rank the riskiest parts in your BOM.
