About FSP

FSP is a centralized, web-based application that manages and supports collaborative supply chain processes between Flextronics and our supplier base. FSP enables Flextronics and our suppliers to:

• Automate transmission of transactions including:
  • Forecast
  • Purchase orders
  • Purchase order changes
  • Order cancellations
• Accept and send supplier responses and shipment notices via multiple formats including:
  • An online Web Portal
  • EDI
• Reduce non-value-added purchasing costs
• Provide complete history of POs (including PO changes) on the Web

Who Uses FSP?

Flextronics first released FlexPASS in December 2002 with one facility, a handful of parts and a few suppliers. FSP is currently being implemented globally, replacing FlexPASS. As of October 2010, we have 65 sites live on FSP, ordering 634,000 parts from 12,000 suppliers.
