Hard-to-find sourcing capability

When standard channels say a device is unavailable, end-of-life or under export controls, Solaris locates it. The capability that earned Solaris its Google-approved vendor status in 2016 came from sourcing a discontinued mission-critical feature phone that no other approved vendor could find. Since then, Solaris has located 40+ specialist SKUs for body camera manufacturers, medical device OEMs, research institutions and academic buyers.

Lead time and engagement model

Standard lead time for in-stock devices is 7 to 14 business days from purchase order. New-generation device allocation typically 14 to 21 days. TAA-compliant federal procurement adds 7 to 10 days for documentation. Specialist EOL sourcing 14 to 90 days subject to source availability. Solaris confirms exact lead time at proposal stage.
