After training is complete, being certified helps make you more valuable to your company, with detailed knowledge how to:
- Predict internal cost against pricing submitted by contract electronics suppliers for your programs
- Identify EMS manufacturer inefficiencies in your programs
- Identify internal supplier operating costs, where your suppliers hide profits and double-dips with excessive fees and markups, enabling you to develop supplier financial metrics to better manage supplier relationships
- Determine what your unit total landed best strike price (cost) should be, including fully burdened labor rates for direct labor and indirect labor, including design and manufacturing engineering costs.
- Leverage outputs from your manufacturing cost model so you know where, and how, to drive down your product unit cost to get closer to actual EMS manufacturer internal costs
- Better positioning for your company during contract negotiations (or re-negotiations), with defensible cost reductions to reduce your manufacturing spend
- Tracking and achieving ROI for your programs and where to apply supplier scorecards in your contract manufacturing supply chain.
- We also show you how to edit and use Venture Outsource models to drive down costs with future programs across 45+ nations and 100+ cities where your supplier(s) have factories
