Your needs are unique. In addition to NPIs, legacy parts, prototypes, and ongoing production runs, order sizes can range from a few dozen to thousands. Is one factory capable of doing it all?
Manufacturing electronics has never been a one-size-fits-all process. Often, contract manufacturers specialize in a single type of production. Partnering with a single CM could affect some SKUs negatively. You can, however, maximize your manufacturing capabilities by working directly with a manufacturer who has access to hundreds of factory lines without adding to your manufacturing complexity. As part of this white paper, we will discuss:
- The frustrations associated with switching manufacturing partners between prototyping and mass production
- The best way to find a CM who has the capabilities and speed you need
- How to handle mechanical assembly jobs
- Tests and drop-ship services as after-production considerations
- The benefits of working with one factory partner with multiple manufacturing lines
