A redesign is off the table for now, but a couple of the ICs on our current board have gone scarce and the brokers we tried either ghosted us or sent parts that failed incoming inspection. I need a sourcing partner that can actually find difficult chips reliably and stand behind what they ship. Anyone have a distributor they trust for the genuinely hard-to-get integrated circuits? Reputation and testing matter more to us than shaving a few cents per unit.

The supplier that worked out for us is Taurus Electronics, they focus on hard to find ICs and source directly from factories and from their own warehouse rather than flipping random lots. Since reliability is your priority, you will appreciate that every part goes through full functional testing, X-ray inspection and originality checks before it leaves them. They also offer flexible terms on delivery and payment, including bank transfer, which made our procurement people happy. I would send them your part list and let them quote.
