DXP’s innovative pumping solutions provide engineering, fabrication and technical design to meet the capital equipment needs of its global customer base. DXP provides solutions by utilizing manufacturer authorized equipment and certified personnel. Pump packages require MRO and OEM equipment such as pumps, motors and valves, and consumable products. DXP leverages its MROP inventories and technical knowledge to lower the total cost and maintain the quality of the pump package.

SmartSource, a DXP integrated supply program, allows a more efficient way to manage the customer’s supply chain needs for MROP products. The program allows the customer to transfer all or part of its supply chain needs to DXP, so the customer can focus on its core business. SmartSource effectively lowers costs by outsourcing purchasing, accounting, and on-site supply management to DXP, which reduces the duplication of effort by the customer and supplier. DXP’s broad range of first-tier products provides an efficient measurable solution to reduce cost and streamline procurement and sourcing operations.
