Our examination of alternate component
technologies and suppliers can lower cost of
goods sold by 10 to 15%, and, at the same
time, significantly reduce risk by insuring
component availability, reliability, and
performance.
An external viewpoint can often provide an
important unbiased perspective. We
offer:
-
Extensive
experience in technical and business
relationships with manufacturers and
distributors. We are well versed in
developing partnerships with suppliers
that reduce costs and ongoing maintenance
efforts. We have a thorough
understanding of the needs of engineering,
production, purchasing, suppliers, and
distributors - with the ability to refine,
simplify, and clarify aspects of complex
components.
-
Risk
reduction that can have substantial
benefits. If one component is found
that is destined to cause a field return,
or a general product recall - how much is
that worth?
-
Value – Savings of reduced COGS and
lessening of maintenance efforts can
considerably exceeds
fees.
Risk reduction, that can potentially save
hundreds of thousands of dollars each
year, is then free.
-
A
comprehensive knowledge of the entire
product development process, from initial
specification to manufacturing
implementation. In-depth
knowledge of digital, analog, and power
technologies due to extensive design
experience.
