Take Ownership of Your Contract Manufacturing
As your partner in outsourced manufacturing for a defined set of parts, Unimacts is responsible for:
- Delivery to your dock
- Developing tooling, manufacturing processes, and controls
- Identifying and managing the factories best suited for the production of your parts
The Advantages of Dedicated Outsourced Manufacturing
Unimacts offers a dedicated line to enable you to work directly with our factories. This allows you to take operational ownership of factory production without assuming the risks of providing upfront capital.
As your outsourced manufacturing source, Unimacts is responsible for:
- Ensuring that delivery demands are satisfied throughout the supply chain
- Timely and accurate supply of raw materials
- Actively managing and monitoring the production process
- Reviewing parts, packaging, and documentation before shipping
Unimacts' Contract Manufacturing Process
Manufacturing officially begins after first-article approval and encompasses everything until we ship the parts. The process remains relatively simple when Unimacts handles:
- Supplier development
- Engineering
- Sourcing
- New Product Introduction (NPI)
- Manufacturing and production to spec
If problems and/or questions arise, we:
- Inform you of the problem
- Propose actionable solutions
- Manage all the details
New Product Introduction (NPI)
As this is one of the most critical parts of your investment, Unimacts leads this process from receipt of the initial PO to first-article approval. A well-executed NPI can pay dividends that benefit your company for years.
With our process expertise and experience, Unimacts and our global suppliers can execute the NPI process in the same or less time than other suppliers through:
- Detailed project management plans
- Aggressive but realistic launch dates
- Precisely engineered, well-tooled, extensively tested process flows
- Consistent execution of the NPI strategy up the supply chain
- Products that meet all safety and quality requirements and business commitments
Become an Active Partner in the Manufacturing Process
Unimacts owns and manages the manufacturing process, but you are always welcome to join us:
- Participate in any part of the process
- Review our documentation
- Audit our processes, supply factories or sub-suppliers
Manufacturing and Quality Process Documentation
Unimacts' documentation is widely considered best practice within the industry. Our standard NPI documentation is similar to AIAG PPAP documentation, but we will gladly follow whatever standard you require.
