Value-Added Services

Ryder offers a broad range of value-added services, some of which are:

  • Product Configuration and Testing - involves adjusting or supplementing a base product with additional features based on actual customer demand. Once customized, products are tested to assess compliance with given parameters and functional specifications.

  • Sequencing - service of pulling and scheduling of material that is synchronized with the build order on an assembly line. Sequencing alleviates the need to store multiple totes, containers, or racks at the point-of-install on the assembly line and is especially valuable when there are high complexity of colors, options or models.

  • Kitting - packaging service where parts or materials received in bulk quantities are split.
