Manufacturing
The production phase of a developed design is fully supervised by our Project Management team. After designing and developing the content of the Production Manual, we will, after consultation with the stakeholders, search for a reputable factory to execute the manufacturing of your product.
We have a network of international operating renowned OEM / Manufacturers in both Western-Europe and Asia. Because we have extensive experience and expertise with production projects in both Europe and Asia, we know exactly which manufacturers are most suitable for what specific product.
After the manufacture of the product we continue to assist you: developing and designing the necessary technical documentation. This can be promotional material concisting of a brochure, product website for marketing purposes and a User or Service Manual.
Once the prototype has been fully tested and the subsequent As-Built documentation has been completed, the development team will draw up an extensive Production Manual. This manual states the construction processes, necessary tools and jigs (these tools and jigs are designed and engineered by the development team) that assist during the assembly and suppliers: i.e. how the product should be manufactured and where all necessary components can be purchased.
The processes described in the Production Manual are the guideline for planning production at a manufacturer of choice. This manufacturer must translate the described processes such as: machining, molding, casting and construction into a series production process.
The manufacturer of choice starts with the production. All specified individual components are assembled into the intended final product. Many companies play a role in this process as suppliers. All these electronic, mechanical components and semi-finished products form the supply chain that will build the product on the assembly lines.
Quality Assurance Managers check all semi-finished products and components used in the assembly of the product and inspect during the manufacturing process whether the required quality standard, which is determined by the development team and the client, is guaranteed.
After the completed product comes off the assembly lines, correct operation is checked at various points. After this quality control and functional tests, the product is accompanied by a QC report and sent to the logistics department for packaging. After this, transport is arranged per batch with a transporter.
The finished product is now transported safely and insured from the manufacturer's plant to you, and in succession to an outbound logistics hub for further distribution (Third & Fourth Party Logistics) to various customers or distributors, innitiated and managed by you as being the Product Owner.
Many 3PL and 4PL distributors offer additional services such as order fulfillment. A 3PL warehouse provides a full range of e-commerce fulfillment services, including warehousing, shipping and receiving. In addition these 3PL warehouses offer value-added services such as (RMA) returns processing, cross-docking or kitting. These are essential to ensure a perfect after-sales service towards your (international) wholesale locations and their customers.
