Electronic manufacturing and design services companies test, manufacture, distribute as well as provide return or repair services for the electronic components and assemblies for original equipment manufacturers (OEM). Electronic contract manufacturers use wide range of productive functions pertaining to component design, assembly of circuit board and hardware, product engineering, process engineering, procurement, product fulfillment, distribution as well as after-sales services.
Outsourcing in electronics industry has evolved in a considerable manner during the past few years. The outsourcing providers manufacture specific products on contract basis. Through the economies of scale across contracts, the contract manufacturers can use operational expertise, cheap labor and more buying power which in turn leads to low cost of production.
This shift to outsource manufacturing for maintaining low costs has been the major evolution in electronics industry. OEMs also use contract manufacturing in order to cost effectively enter into a new market. Most of the electronic manufacturing and design service providers maintain good relations with the customers which in turn is beneficial in design and pre-production process that leads to shorter new product introduction time.
The electronic contract manufacturing services concentrate mainly on technologies and sub technologies such as computers, networking, consumer devices, servers and storage, telecommunications and peripherals. Based on end-use industry, electronic contract manufacturing and design services market is segmented into industrial, healthcare, automotive, enterprise and infrastructure. In automotive industry, electric vehicles are gaining significant demand, which has significantly increased the need for contract manufacturing services in the sector.
