IC-ASAP is an independent electronic components distribution and procurement service under Space Coast IC, Inc. Its core offering is not a retail-style storefront for general consumers, but a B2B RFQ-based purchasing platform. It helps OEMs, contract manufacturers, engineers, component manufacturers, and distributors source new parts, obsolete parts, long-lead-time items, hard-to-find components, and military/aerospace-related parts.
The platform emphasizes “full-service procurement,” using trained traders for global sourcing. It claims access to more than 10 million lines of excess inventory from authorized distributors, independent distributors, and OEMs. Categories include semiconductors, passive components, optoelectronics, and electromechanical components, with services such as BOM coverage, supplier consolidation, and kitting. For manufacturers that do not want to manage a large number of suppliers directly, its value lies in reducing procurement communication overhead and helping address shortages caused by long lead times.
Submitting an RFQ is free; once an order is placed, the buyer pays for the parts and shipping. For new buyers, most components have a minimum order amount of USD 250 per part number. Payment options are fairly comprehensive, including Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover credit cards, as well as COD, wire transfer, and payment terms that must be arranged in advance. For fulfillment, the website states that delivery can be completed within a few days. Parts are quality-checked upon arrival, buyers have 30 business days to inspect and return defective items, and a 30-day form, fit, and function warranty is provided.
The advantages are its clear positioning and focus on obsolete, allocated, long-lead-time, and hard-to-find electronic components. RFQs are free, and multilingual trader support is available, including Chinese. It can also handle excess inventory sales and consignment. The drawbacks are that the website information appears somewhat dated, and the workflow is mainly form-based RFQ. We did not see real-time inventory, live pricing, online checkout, or clearly stated shipping rates, so procurement transparency is weaker than on modern electronic components platforms. As with any independent distribution channel, buyers should remain cautious about sourcing, lot traceability, authenticity, and test reports.
It is better suited to procurement teams in industrial electronics, repair, aerospace and defense supply chains, OEMs, and contract manufacturers that have specific part numbers, budgets, and delivery-time pressure. It is less suitable for small, immediate purchases of standard components. The source text does not provide information on access from China, so the status is unknown; for payment, international credit cards or wire transfer can be used. If you need a more transparent catalog-style purchasing experience, alternatives to compare include Digi-Key, Mouser, Arrow, Avnet, Octopart, Findchips, and Rochester Electronics.
