01Based on the information provided, we assess the complexity of the project, considering the required scope of assembly, the number of items in the Bill of Materials (BOM), the PCB stack-up, and the required soldering technologies. We also check the completeness and consistency of the technical documentation, including the alignment between the BOM and Pick & Place (PnP) files.
02We identify any unclear or missing information and discuss it with the customer to clarify the project requirements.
03We obtain pricing and availability information from our trusted suppliers for the required electrical, electronic, and electromechanical (EEE) components, production materials, and PCBs. For certain specialised components, this process may take up to 2 weeks.
04We calculate recurring costs and non-recurring costs (NRE) associated with production preparation. We also estimate the time required to complete the assembly process, taking into account the specific characteristics and requirements of each project.
05We review the project requirements against available production capacity and time slots. Based on this assessment, we prepare a proposed production and delivery schedule.
06We incorporate all the collected information, cost calculations, and proposed delivery dates into a comprehensive quotation for the customer.
