Find your second source before you need it
Over 40% of organizations plan to diversify sourcing in 2026. Tariff volatility, supplier delays, and single-source risk are driving the shift. 3E makes it easy to find alternatives.
How 3E Helps
105,000+ Alternative Sources
One search surfaces every company in our database that carries a given part or brand — built from nearly 40 years of sourcing relationships across electronics, industrial, and mechanical components.
AI-Powered Backup Discovery
Our research system automatically searches for additional suppliers after you search. When a new source is found — whether domestic or international — you get notified by email.
Tariff-Resilient Sourcing
A 2025 Deloitte study predicted that 40% of U.S. companies would relocate at least part of their supply chains to North America by 2026. Find domestic, nearshore, and global alternatives in a single search.
Reduce Single-Source Risk
When your primary supplier faces delays — and 60% of A&D firms reported significant delays last year — having a pre-qualified backup means production doesn't stop.
Example
Tariff spike on primary supplier
New tariffs hit your primary supplier's country of origin. You need a domestic or nearshore alternative fast. Search 3E — find 7 alternative suppliers across the U.S. and Mexico. Our AI discovers 4 more within a week, including one that cuts landed cost by 12%.
