With 51% of North American sales bypassing CDW's distribution centers, the company is heavily reliant on the logistical performance of its OEM and distributor partners. This creates significant operational risk and a need for robust supply chain monitoring and partner management systems to prevent disruptions.
Filing excerpt
We also have drop-shipment arrangements with many of our OEMs and wholesale distributors, which permit us to offer products to our customers without having to take physical delivery at our distribution centers. These arrangements represented approximately 51% of total North America Net sales in 2025.
