Purpose
These charts identify the top yards where your parts are sold and the top yards you purchase from. They show where your strongest business relationships are and help evaluate whether your sourcing and sales partners align.
Key Metrics
-
Parts Sold by Yard – Which yards are buying the most from you.
-
Parts Purchased by Yard – Which yards you rely on most for inventory.
Insights to Look For
-
Relationship dependence: If a large portion of volume is tied to one yard, your business may be heavily reliant on that partner.
-
Balanced network vs. concentration: A spread across multiple yards reduces risk, while concentration may indicate strong but vulnerable reliance.
-
Two-way partnerships: Yards that appear on both lists (purchases and sales) may represent reciprocal relationships worth strengthening further.
-
Growth opportunities: Yards with smaller volumes but steady activity may be candidates for deeper partnerships.
