Assemblies

Manufacture Globally, Assemble Locally

Minimize risks and tariffs with our assembly facilities in US, Mexico, Germany and Spain.

Why assemble locally?

You already know the benefits of assembling locally. It derisks your supply chain, improves lead times, and in many cases, results in significantly reduced tariffs and hence costs. For companies that want to monitor production closely, assembling locally allows them frequent visits.

When you work with us, we design the most optimum supply chain for you resulting in lowest cost, least risk, and fastest delivery. It often means that components are produced somewhere in Asia, but they’re brought together to our facilities in the US, Mexico, Germany or Spain for final assembly. The best part - we control it all for you.

How it works ?

Tariff engineering usually involves the following steps:

Supply Chain Management
  • Part and sub-assembly manufacturing in low-cost Asian countries.
  • Supplier management by local quality and sourcing teams across Asia.
  • Tariff engineered supply chain design for reduced tariff import in US.
Consolidation and logistics
  • Consolidation of parts from suppliers across Asia.
  • 1000+ containers per month.
  • In-house_licensed customs broker for handling end-to-end logistic.
Value addition is Mexico
  • Significant rtansformation and value addition in Mexico.
  • Assembly and testing.
  • Secondary processes like machining, painting, etc.
