PhotonicSourcing launches a powerful search engine for photonic related products

MONTREAL  2002 – Photonicsourcing announces today a new user-friendly search engine. www.photonicsourcing.com allows engineers and buyers to search for photonic products or services using a search engine with remarkably fast results.  This efficient system may result in a 20% to 50% cost reduction on future purchases.  No more time-consuming catalogue process sourcing.  PhotonicSourcing is free.

Photonicsourcing’s team is made up of experienced buyers and professional engineers specialized in photonic related products.  PhotonicSourcing's goal is to offer an efficient working tool that delivers relevant information in order to help optimize costs and reduce product or service searching time.

“In today’s market situation, photonic companies are focusing on new products development and cost reduction programs.  ”Such tools are reducing the amount of time required to find the best suppliers” says Marc Duquette, CEO of Photonicsourcing.  ”As a materials manager in a photonic company, I knew what it was like to spend days searching for the right product.  Having a engine search like this would have tremendously improved my work efficiency.”  Mr. Duquette is presently establishing partnerships and developing strategic alliances with important Web sites and established companies specialized in photonic related transactions.

PhotonicSourcing leverages the Internet, searchable database technology, and a Request For Quotation (RFQ) module to provide extensive worldwide component search capabilities.  RFQ’s may be sent through the PhotonicSourcing’s web site.  Quotes are received directly in the applicant’s mailbox for evaluation and comparison.  The database contains over 14,000 registered vendors who specialize in optics, lasers, imaging, fiber optics and optoelectronics. Hundreds of e-mails every week notify potential vendors that a specific customer is looking for a product.   Site navigation is made easier by using the live chat service.  At all times, a representative can support the user to help solve problems or answer any questions. 

It revolutionizes the way customers search for optical products and the way vendors find new customers:

  • Searches can be made using product name,  company name or category.
  • Optical components and related products are instantly searchable through a list of thousands of vendors;
  • Search results are conducted using an innovative search technology;
  • Search results are ranked to immediately show relevant vendors;
  • Unbiased RFQ comparisons are available quickly;
  • Contact between customers and vendors is simplified by an incorporated mail box;
  • Extended service of personalized sourcing – Hire us, we will source it for you!

Photonicsourcing.com is not a brokerage firm and receives no commission on product sales made through the site. The interest lies in providing a user friendly and powerful web-based tool for sourcing managers, engineers, buyers and sales representatives, regardless of their computer expertise.
