Manufacturing Support
Navigate the complexity of hardware manufacturing with someone who's been through it.
What I Help With
Manufacturer Selection
Finding and vetting the right manufacturing partners for your product.
Design for Manufacturing
Optimizing your design for production, reducing costs while maintaining quality.
Production Scaling
Moving from pilot runs to mass production with quality control processes.
Supply Chain Management
Component sourcing, inventory management, and risk mitigation strategies.
Quality Assurance
Implementing inspection procedures, testing protocols, and defect tracking.
Cost Optimization
Reducing BOM costs and manufacturing expenses without compromising functionality.
Common Manufacturing Challenges I Help Solve
Component Availability Crisis
Your prototype uses components with 52-week lead times. Finding alternatives and redesigning as needed.
Quality Control Problems
High defect rates in production. Tracing issues back to manufacturing and implementing fixes.
Scaling Bottlenecks
Need to 10x production volume. Identifying bottlenecks and optimizing processes.
Cost Overruns
Manufacturing costs exceeding budget. Reviewing BOM and design for cost savings.
My Approach
Initial Assessment
Understanding your current situation, goals, and constraints.
Strategy Development
Creating a realistic manufacturing plan based on your product and volume.
Partner Selection
Finding and vetting manufacturers that match your requirements.
Pilot Production
Hands-on support during initial production runs to identify and fix issues.
Scaling Support
Ongoing guidance as you increase production volume and optimize processes.
Real Manufacturing Experience
I've managed production in China for IoT products that shipped globally. I know where things go wrong.
