Gain a Cost Advantage with Stateside-Managed Offshore Manufacturing
Free global trade has resulted in a competitive market place. The least expensive labor pool for many kinds of electronics manufacturing is found in the Asian-Pacific region. Production runs with a predictable volume are especially well suited for offshore assembly and can enjoy significant savings over domestic manufacture. GMI has joined forces with capable, reliable partners in Asia to deliver dramatic cost savings while minimizing retooling requirements. We maintain daily contact with each of our partners to ensure that delivery, price and quality are not sacrificed. Offshore production often follows validation in a domestic facility. Customers turn to GMI as a single, low-risk, easy-to-use source for offshore manufacturing. We offer globally competitive prices from a single point of contact.
Customer-Focused Teams Manage Fluctuating Schedules, Forecasts, & Changes
Customer-Focused Teams Manage Fluctuating Schedules, Forecasts, & Changes: GMI maintains a continuing presence in Asia and forms teams that include a Program Manager, Project Engineer, Project Purchaser, Manufacturing Supervisor, QA Manager and management representative to better manage fluctuating schedules, customer changes, forecasts and customer expectations.
Additional Stateside Support
GMI clients enjoy offshore pricing, but with the insurance of state-side support, including rework and warranty repairs that can save precious time. Our North Carolina-based technical and manufacturing personnel are easy to contact and eager to serve. We close the gaps in distance, culture and time that often arise during offshore manufacturing. From engineering to re-engineering to after-sale support, our clients enjoy the convenience, security and satisfaction of a US-based partner. They gain the benefits of supply chain management, lead-time reduction, close project supervision, easy communication, bargaining power, and flexibility, all with lower expenses for travel and overhead.
Logistics and Stocking Programs Smooth Product Availability
At GMI, we understand the freight, customs and lead-time requirements of offshore manufacturing, and we help our clients manage those challenges. To ease the pressure on inventory requirements, GMI can develop tailored “stocking programs” to ensure that you have adequate inventory to meet your customers’ needs.
Other Offshore Component Sourcing Opportunities
In addition to electronic assemblies and components, GMI has the sources to “tool” and produce plastic injection molding, metal fabrication, stamping, wiring harness fabrication, and other electro-mechanical components. We can also source or build related components in Asia for considerable cost and logistical efficiencies.
