Outsourced manufacturing has become an integral part of most global businesses. To operate in an increasingly competitive global market, a sourcing strategy that involves buying locally combined with sourcing from low cost countries has assumed great importance. A number of companies have been able to successfully lower manufacturing costs by moving their production operations to manufacturers with the help of a sourcing company, as well as finding accredited & certified suppliers. This has helped them withstand competition, survive and reap profits even in the event of an economic slowdown. Procurement savings have influenced bottom-line results of companies significantly. Further, companies have been able to boost their revenues by reinvesting these savings while they carve a substantial market for their products when they extend highly competitive pricing to their clients.
We are a single point of contact and the critical link from concept and design to finished product. The key concerns for new product developers are cost, quality and timing. We thoroughly review each new project focusing on material specifications, dimensional drawings and all levers that affect Fit and Function–all with a key emphasis on lowest total cost.
As projects move from the design and quotation phase we coordinate tool and prototype building, first article of inspection samples and final approvals. During production we are on site ensuring all agreed upon specifications, including final primary and secondary packaging are correct. Throughout the entire project we report back with progress reports, photos, videos and timing updates.
