Introducing Enhanced Overage Logic for Better Efficiency and Cost Savings

By Parker Dillmann  |  April 18, 2023

At MacroFab, we are committed to continuously improving our services to meet the evolving needs of our customers. One of the latest advancements we've implemented is the enhancement of our intelligent overage logic. This update is designed to provide you with even more competitive pricing while ensuring that every order has sufficient materials to meet your deadlines.

Optimizing Inventory and Reducing Waste

Overage logic is a crucial component of the PCB Assembly process. It ensures that there are enough materials on hand to complete your project without delays. Traditionally, this logic calculates the extra materials required to account for potential losses or errors during production. However, this can sometimes lead to excess costs, especially when dealing with high-cost parts.

Maximizing Cost Savings and Value

The improved overage logic not only optimizes material usage but also significantly reduces costs. By carefully calculating the necessary overage for high-cost components, we minimize unnecessary expenditures, ensuring that you get the best value for your PCB Assembly projects. This refinement in our approach translates to direct savings for you, our customer, without compromising on the quality or reliability of your order.

Listening to Our Customers: Enhanced Overage Logic for High-Value

In response to valuable feedback from our customers, we have refined our overage logic to address the specific challenges associated with high-cost parts. Our updated approach focuses on optimizing the use of materials, ensuring that we balance cost-efficiency with the need for sufficient inventory. This enhancement helps us better manage inventory, reduce waste, and improve overall efficiency.

Strengthening Supply Chain Reliability

With the updated overage logic, we are better equipped to manage our inventory and reduce waste. This improvement leads to a more reliable supply chain, as we can more accurately predict material requirements and minimize the risk of shortages. The result is a smoother production process, fewer delays, and increased confidence that your projects will be completed on time and within budget.
