DigiKey, the global distribution leader of electronic components and automation products, is hosting a webinar on how to use the company’s time-saving My Lists parts management tool entitled “Empower your everyday work with My Lists,” scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 13, 2026, at 10 a.m. CDT. The free 60-minute virtual event will cover My Lists’ comprehensive list management and quoting features that allow users to make informed purchasing decisions, collaborate with coworkers and lock in pricing.
Managing parts across multiple sources can create complexity and inefficiency. With DigiKey’s My Lists tool, users have access to a single, centralized hub for part information, pricing, supplier details and real-time inventory status. “As a high-service distributor, DigiKey is continually improving the customer experience, and My Lists is an important tool for enhancing the sourcing process,” said Jillian Switts, senior director for e-commerce at DigiKey. “Whether you are managing a bill of materials, evaluating alternatives, checking price and availability, or coordinating with suppliers, My Lists brings everything together in one organized platform to make the product procurement process smarter and easier.”
Beyond organization, My Lists offers users measurable business benefits. The online tool generates quotes directly from product lists and locks in pricing for up to 30 days, giving users budget certainty. With immediate access to critical data that eliminates manual searching, reduces errors and accelerates decision-making, users and sourcing teams can improve pricing visibility, increase procurement cycles and deliver strategic purchasing outcomes.
During the webinar, attendees will learn to:
- Select and save substitute and alternate parts
- Use the tool to collaborate with team members or share information publicly
- Generate quotes and lock in pricing quickly
- Identify cost-saving opportunities
- Streamline bill of material (BOM) management and procurement workflows
