What is service-parts and aftermarket logistics?

It is the storage, distribution and repair of spare parts and returned units after the original sale. Lateral Fulfillment stocks service parts, fulfills warranty and replacement orders, and runs inspection, repair and refurbishment under documented SOPs — with lot-level traceability for regulated and high-value goods.

Why nearshore aftermarket and repair operations?

Repair and refurbishment are labor-intensive, and holding spare parts close to the U.S. market shortens replacement times. Running these in Tijuana pairs a skilled technical workforce with one-to-three-day U.S. delivery, lowering repair cost by up to 30% while keeping customers supplied.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What does an aftermarket logistics program cover?

It covers spare-parts stocking, warranty and replacement fulfillment, inspection, repair, refurbishment and compliant recycling. The goal is to keep products in service by holding parts near the U.S. market and turning repairs quickly.

How does Lateral Fulfillment handle traceability?

Regulated and high-value programs maintain lot-level and chain-of-custody records through the warehouse management system, so each part can be traced from receipt through repair or dispatch. This is capability-based handling, not a sector certification.

Can warranty replacements ship quickly?

Yes. Spare parts are stocked at the Tijuana facility and injected into U.S. carrier networks at San Diego, so most replacements reach customers in one to three days rather than waiting on a distant depot.

Is repair work done in-house?

Yes. Inspection, diagnosis, repair, re-testing and refurbishment run inside the facility under documented SOPs, using a workforce trained in technical assembly and repair. Unrecoverable units are dispositioned with an audit trail.

Which sectors is this suited to?

Consumer electronics, medical devices, aerospace and industrial equipment — categories where uptime, spare-parts availability and traceable handling matter. Regulated categories use capability-based controls rather than certification claims.

How does nearshore lower repair cost?

Repair is manual and skill-intensive. Performing it in Tijuana rather than the United States lowers labor cost by up to 30%, which makes repairing and refurbishing economical where a U.S. operation might scrap and replace.

Are duties owed on parts crossing the border?

U.S. import duties apply when parts enter the United States. Under IMMEX, Mexican duties on imported inputs are deferred while goods remain in Mexico. Deferral applies to the Mexican side only.

How long does it take to stand up a service-parts program?

Most programs are live within six weeks of contract signature. Complex programs with EDI or sequencing requirements can take longer, and a named contact is assigned at kickoff.
