Design transfer: How ready is your design for manufacturing? Some designs require more preparation for manufacturing than others. Rest assure, we guide you through this process as seamlessly as possible.
Materials and design preferences: Some companies and products require very specific materials and designs; Whereas others have a focus on performance, regardless of how it looks or what it’s made out of. Sometimes, using alternative materials, and adjusting the specific design, can help reduce your cost-per-product, without jeopardizing its performance.
Component technicality: Some products feature multiple systems that must work together. If your manufacturer is not accustomed to connecting multiple system together, the process can be challenging. Not to mention, you might still end up with a product that doesn’t work or is prohibitively expensive. Complexity does not intimidate us and electromechanical manufacturing is our specialty. We help our customers determine the most cost-effective way to bring their products to market, at scale, without jeopardizing performance.
Timeline: We have organized ourselves to be nimble. While your budget might not be as nimble, we can work with you to determine the best approach to render your compressed timeline a non-issue. For tight deadlines, we do offer an expedited approach which allows us to have multiple aspects of your project working in parallel, such as tooling, molding, SMT, and ordering materials simultaneously.
Volume and inventory: This is one of the hardest decisions many businesses have to make. You can lower your costs by ordering more, but how soon will all the units sell, and where do you store the influx in the meantime? Luckily, we have ways of helping our partners manage this process with safety stock, risk buys, and even expedited production. We can produce more units for you within two weeks if the materials are on-hand.
Ability to customize your manufacturing process: To automate, or not to automate, that is the question. Believe it or not, but it is possible to over- automate your manufacturing process. This could result in project delays and added costs. Conversely, a fully manual process doesn’t often work either, as it’s hard to maintain quality consistency, and costs can add up here as well. We help all our partners determine the correct amount of automation so that they don’t have to choose between quality consistency, speed of manufacturing, or their costs.
Testing efficiency and quality management: Mistakes cost money. This is why we have a rigorous process to test quickly and on a small scale. Our monitoring systems allow us to detect and immediately correct issues throughout the manufacturing process. This leads to an incredibly low failure rate of 0.05% which means your budget is utilized in the most efficient way possible.
