Vishay's expansion initiative is driven by the need to support customer designs and ensure we are ready to scale alongside them. Our focus on strategic collaboration is evident in key capacity expansions, such as the acquisition of Newport and the construction of a new fab in Itzehoe, demonstrating our strong commitment to growth and customer-centric solutions. To better serve our customers, we are scaling our capacity and enhancing our service to meet the increasing demand for localized manufacturing. This includes the La Laguna factory in Durango, Mexico, and an expansion in Juarez, ensuring products are produced closer to where they will be consumed.

Vishay and Avnet Rebuild Trust with NGC

⚠️ Opportunities or Issues
Northrop Grumman Corporation (NGC) was seeking high-reliability resistors for a long-term, government-funded military/aerospace project. However, Vishay’s M55342 resistor line had previously faced significant supply constraints, resulting in long lead times (LTs) and lost design opportunities to competitors.

❇️ Solutions
Vishay responded by strategically increasing production capacity for the M55342 product line as part of its Vishay 3.0 initiative.
This effort led to:

Improved lead times
More competitive pricing
Renewed focus on winning back key business

With these enhancements in place, Vishay and Avnet reintroduced the M55342 resistors to NGC at an opportune time. Thanks to strong existing relationships, NGC engineers agreed to re-evaluate the product. Although already qualified to MIL spec standards, the resistors are now undergoing internal qualification at NGC for inclusion in their approved parts database.

👍 Customer Benefits

Reduced lead times due to increased manufacturing capacity
Cost savings from more competitive pricing
Renewed supplier confidence through proactive engagement and technical support
Streamlined sourcing with parts progressing toward internal qualification at NGC

This success was made possible through a coordinated effort between the Vishay sales team, Avnet, and Vishay Dale, leveraging the Vishay 3.0 strategy to reclaim and grow strategic business.

How Teamwork Won Back $500K in Business

⚠️ Opportunities or Issues
Vishay was facing significant competition from State of the Art at a customer in New York. Vishay had lost business due to factors such as: resistive film construction preference, lead time issues, and price competitiveness.

❇️ Solutions
One of Vishay’s East Coast sales reps saw an opportunity to help Vishay re-enter the account but needed to push for more detailed information to open the door for quoting 55342 opportunities. Through much perseverance and divisional support, Vishay and the sales rep were able to position Avnet with best pricing and delivery.

👍 Customer Benefits
The customer was impressed with the service they received and as a result, placed $500K in Vishay 55342 technologies through Avnet. The total team effort from the sales rep, Avnet, and Vishay Dale helped seal the deal. Because of the customer-first minded approach, the team was able to meet the customer demands.

To replicate this success, please arrange meetings with AMS customers and ask the question “Do you use State of the Art, Mini-Systems, or TTe/IRC?” If the customer responds with “Yes”, the next steps would be to obtain a list of competitor part numbers and work with the Dale division to cross and secure the business. Vishay Dale is hungry to service the market and will ensure that price, lead time, and customer demands are met.
