One point of contact
You deal with the person who handles your request from start to finish.
The part number is obsolete and missing from official catalogues
Authorised distributors quote 12 weeks or more
The manufacturer isn't replying, or the item is end-of-life
Stock on third-party marketplaces can't be verified
That is where we step in. We take over the search, so your maintenance and purchasing teams can focus on keeping the plant running.
How It Works
1. Send the details
Part number, nameplate photo, description or the machine it belongs to.
2. We check
We verify specifications and look for availability with suppliers.
3. You get a clear quote
Price, delivery terms and what we are responsible for.
4. We order and follow up
After your approval, we place the order and track it with the supplier.
You receive shipping details and tracking to follow the delivery to your site.
5. Delivery
Every hour of downtime costs money. If your regular suppliers are failing, it is time for professional sourcing assistance.
We source industrial components, check supplier availability and follow orders through to delivery — including urgent and hard-to-find parts.
From everyday components to parts nobody stocks any more

About RIS
Rapid Industrial Sourcing is an independent industrial sourcing company based in Peterborough. It was founded by Leszek Karlinski, who has spent over five years in industrial purchasing and expediting at a UK engineering manufacturer: placing purchase orders, chasing overdue deliveries, resolving shortages and keeping supplier promise dates under control. Before that he worked in warehouse operations and logistics, and earlier in B2B sales and marketing management.
That daily work showed us what a missing component really costs, and how often the answer is simply finding the right source quickly and following it up. RIS starts with a single urgent part and can grow into ongoing procurement support for your plant.
We work in English, Polish and Russian, and support manufacturers across the UK, Europe and selected Eurasian markets.
