Engineering Services
Automated-Test Procedure
Called "ATP". We can develop a testing framework with a user interface that generates events to validate that the functional operation of our customer's system is within a specified tolerance. An ATP is geared towards eliminating human errors and increasing operational efficiencies.
Design Services
- Board-level design
- System-level design
- PCBA design
- Mechanical design
- Thermal analysis
- Agency certifications-UL,FCC,CSA
- SDK and board support packages
- Reference Designs
- COTS level system and design
Our value-added services leverage our expertise across multiple embedded hardware and software standards. Where a customer has difficulty making a 100% COTS offering work, we offer derivative designs that incorporate a hybrid mix of both standard products as well as custom in order to deliver a perfect solution. This approach may require mechanical design modifications, circuit design, board support package development and image creation. Additionally, we can conduct pre-scan and thermal tests before assisting our customers with the agency certification effort.
Integration & Manufacturing Services
Process Documentation
Otherwise known as a "build document". We create a build/test document which is a logical arrangement of steps to follow in order to successfully and consistently assemble our customer’s system. Properly written process documents insure that our customer’s product is built exactly how they specify it to be
High Mix Systems Integration
We excel in integrating and managing complex builds consisting of multiple third-party HW and SW subassemblies both in COTS as well as custom designs.
Safety Stock Maintenance
Materials in stock that are held above and beyond the actual demand for that material, hence creating a safety stock. Safety stock programs are designed to reduce long lead times.
Image Load and Test
We have expertise in receiving our customer's image, validating it on their system platform, loading it, and providing testing services to insure its proper functional operation on the platform. Image loads can be done through an automated and fail-safe production network method based on a customized gang loading approach.
Forced Routing
Quality data collection center through customized product routings. Forced routing allows you to create a quality plan per a customer SKU or a specific supplier part number.
- Customized In-Process Quality Metrics
- Customer Portal
ERP/MRP
Features: sales order entry, bill of material creation, daily MRP regeneration, planned order reports, shop floor control, and flexible warehouse locations.
New Product Introduction
Otherwise known as "NPI". We have an ISO controlled process for the release of new products which includes doc control, drawings, assembly docs, checklists, test procedures and final QC. This process ensures a smooth transition from the requirement definitions through the hand-off to manufacturing. The customer's involvement will culminate with an official sign off of the source control document.
MRB
The process where a team of people reviews discrepant material for disposition. Popular dispositions are: return to vendor, repair, scrap, and use as is. MRB data is critical in maintaining a high level of quality in our customer's product.
IPC-A-610/WHMA-IPC-620
We have IPC610/620 certified in-house resources including a WHMA/IPC-A-620 trainer.
Life Cycle Management Services
Configuration Management
We work with selected suppliers to develop a configuration agreement to ensure that critical components cannot be changed without notification. This is otherwise known as "BOM Locking". A full BOM lock eliminates configuration uncertainty which can shut a production line down.
Product Life Cycle Management
- Bill of Material Management
- EOL Surveillance and Notification
Ensuring that our customers reap the benefit of a component's full product life cycle is very important to us. With this mind, during the product selection process, due diligence is exercised to disclose where every COTS item is in its life cycle and decisions are made as to the viability of the part. Once selected, on a quarterly basis, we conduct an EOL surveillance on the list of material. The OEM is then notified of any part that is known to have an impending EOL. We can work with the OEM to help select a replacement part, bring it in for testing, and ultimately cut it into production as a qualified replacement part.
