Product engineering services, on the other hand, refer to the process of taking a product from the design phase to the manufacturing phase, including testing, validation, and optimization of the product to ensure that it meets all necessary specifications and quality standards.

It can be easy to confuse the differences in services between electronics product design house, contract electronics manufacturing (CEM) providers who offer design services, and original design manufacturers (ODM), who also provider design services. The article below in the SEE ALSO section, links to details clearly outlining the differences. Meanwhile, this article also sheds light on some of the more costly services offered by contract electronics providers, including design services. And, take a look at this article explaining how to choose design services while removing some risks.

ELECTRONICS NEW PRODUCT INTRODUCTION (NPI) SERVICES

 

There is a difference between electronics new product introduction (NPI) and new product launch (NPL), yet they have somewhat related stages in the product development process. New product introduction (NPI) is the process of introducing a new product to the market. This process includes product design, development, testing and validation, and may also include market research, prototyping, and pilot production.

For a detailed timeline of activities when launching a new electronics product we suggest requesting this white paper with expectations and assumptions, here. For information about feasibility of NPI (high cost) vs revising existing products already in the market (less cost), this article is helpful, titled: Electronic NPI feasibility vs cost reductions and price erosion, plus this excellent NPI resources page filled with helpful information, time-to-market (TTM) guidelines, and additional articles.

ELECTRONICS MANUFACTURING SERVICES

Contract electronics manufacturing services offered by provider are more than just placing solder paste on circuit boards, running those boards through surface mount technology (SMT) machines, wave solder machines, and related printed circuit board (PCB) assembly processes. Manufacturing services in contract electronics industry refer to outsourcing production of electronic components and products to a third-party equipment manufacturer – the OEM brand owner.

Outsourcing SMT, PCB assembly and test (OSAT) requires knowledgeable teams and robust processes and procedures when managing programs and provider performance. This article mentions twelve key factors for  understanding quotes when sourcing and PCB assembly box build systems integration services.

ELECTRONICS SUPPLY CHAIN SERVICES

Supply chain management services in contract electronics industry involved management and coordination of activities related to the procurement, production, distribution and delivery of electronic components, sub-assemblies and products on behalf of electronics OEM equipment manufacturers.

This can include sourcing and pipelining of raw materials, semiconductor and component purchasing, inventory and warehouse management of finished goods inventory (FGI), logistics, transportation, and distribution. Meanwhile, supply chains are facing many challenges. Read highlights into 2040 in the Global Trends report for supply chain concerns from the US National Intelligence Council, here. Venture Outsource also suggests reading our brief on ways politics and economic policies impact manufacturing supply chains, here.

The objective of supply chain services in contract electronics industry is to ensure a smooth and efficient flow of materials and products without shortages and at the hight quality of service for predictable planning and forecasting, while maximizing cost savings and minimizing risk. Manufacturers focused on supply chain readiness can purchase this Venture Outsource questionnaire, here, addressing manufacturing supply chain concerns such as engineering change orders (ECO) – ways how to identify issues with bill-of-materials (BOM), planning and purchasing, work-in-process (WIP) and finished goods inventory (FGI) months before real impact, plus ways to identify materials procurement and product compliance constraints through automated change management tied to, and with, full chain of custody, and much more.

By outsourcing supply chain activities to contract electronics providers offering these services, OEMs can reduce the burden of managing complex and often extended, dynamic supply chains with hundreds, and often times 100s of 1000s, of individual vendors and suppliers. These 19 questions will provide more insight when developing suppliers. Read more about supply chain services in contract electronics industry.

ELECTRONICS LOGISTICS SERVICES

Logistics services offered by contract electronics services providers involved management and coordination of movement and storage of electronic components, sub-assemblies and products from the point of origin to the point of consumption. The latter can be the OEM manufacturer, or the end user (buyer).

Range of logistics activities can often be similar to supply chain services: procurement and transportation of raw materials, with warehousing and inventory management – yet can extend into order fulfillment and delivery of finished products. But moving materials, components and product across state and international borders can create challenges.

Having access to timely and accurate info should be priority for anyone with manufacturing supply chain logistics responsibility. Loss of control can result in overpaying vendor and supplier purchasing invoices, incorrectly billing customer invoices, inaccurate (over or under) accruing reserves, and more. Providers with

Manufacturing finance departments responsible for proper manufacturing compliance are tasked with effective identification and reporting of changing product values and manufacturer risk elements in extended manufacturing logistics supply chains with mistakes in compliance often causing manufacturers to restate their financial statements. (This is more common than most people realize.)

The goal of cost-effective , logistics services are more than just on-time delivery without OEMs having to acquire costly vertical integration infrastructure requirements. Manufacturers need to benefit from the provider’s expertise, resources, and economies of scale thereby reducing the burden of managing dynamic logistics operations themselves.

ELECTRONICS AFTER MARKET SERVICES

Contract electronics is a for-profit business in an industry able to collect profits from margins often hidden from customers. Warehousing, logistic and after market services are provider profit centers not managed properly.

Providers offering aftermarket services in contract electronics industry provide maintenance and support services to OEM customers (think: brand owners like Apple, Samsung, Caterpillar, Komatsu…) after the sale of electronics products and equipment, such as repairs, upgrades, spare parts supply, and training.

These services can help ensure the longevity, reliability, and performance of equipment and products, while maximizing the OEM customer’s return on investment. In fact, often times after the sale, the provider offering after market services is the only contact customers have with the brand owner manufacturers.

Supply chains are complex. Aside from the fact there is a significant lack of transparency and efficiency in how products’ logistical journeys are recorded and managed, the manufacturing enterprise can also leverage better control over accuracy of tariffs compliance and management of HTS, UNSPSC codes.

Meanwhile, after market services, while they can be the most expensive services for manufacturers, they can also be divided into forward logistics and reverse logistics. Read more about aftermarket services in contract electronics industry
