What is Contract Manufacturing?
• Making components or assemblies for others – Customer’s Design
– Customer’s Finished Specification
– Customer’s Order Quantity & Timing
• Service Menu – What services do you want to provide?
– What are you willing to do for your customers?
![Page 4: Laser Contract Manufacturing - Laserage Technology Corporation](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020321/568c0d251a28ab955a8ba1a8/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
What is Contract Manufacturing?
• Customer’s Design –Their idea, their drawing
–CM Engineering evaluates capability
–CM provide evaluation feedback
![Page 5: Laser Contract Manufacturing - Laserage Technology Corporation](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020321/568c0d251a28ab955a8ba1a8/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
What is Contract Manufacturing?
• Customer’s Finished Specification – Regularly, specific component/assembly
characteristics are defined by customer written guidelines or specifications
– Occasionally, customers will allow the CM to define the outcome characteristics based on your process capabilities.

What is Contract Manufacturing?
• Customer’s Order Quantity & Timing – Our View, our time is not your own.
• Time is sold first come first served
• Highest rate take priority
–CM purchases inventory as need based on customer forecast or spot purchase.
–CM builds to order or to agreed inventory (Kanban)
–Delivery quantity is specified by the customer
–Delivery date is agreed to by both parties.

Why would an OEM utilize a CM?
•Project R&D
• Initial Design Verification (pre-production)
•Pilot Production Line
•Volume Production
![Page 16: Laser Contract Manufacturing - Laserage Technology Corporation](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020321/568c0d251a28ab955a8ba1a8/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Why would an OEM utilize a CM?
–Costs are for the expert manufacturing knowledge as well as capitol. The OEM does not need to spend money or time on capital or learning.
–Flexibility is the beauty of the Contract Manufacturer. If an OEM sends a component to be laser manufactured and the test is not successful, an EDM will be tried next or potentially a water jet system. If a hole diameter does not function as desired, iterate the next round of components. There is a cost in time but not capital.
• Project R&D –Putting a new component into the engineers hand for feasibility and reality checking
–CM are utilized because they have expertise in a narrow field with capital equipment in place
![Page 17: Laser Contract Manufacturing - Laserage Technology Corporation](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020321/568c0d251a28ab955a8ba1a8/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Why would an OEM utilize a CM?
• Initial Design Verification –Once prototyped does not mean always production ready
–Equipment (laser type) evaluation
–Process optimization trials
–DOE for processes and equipment
–Validation efforts
• Equipment Inputs
• Variable range testing
• Multiply lot Process Execution
• Design for Manufacturability –Understanding all the Processes
–Effective Process Controls
![Page 18: Laser Contract Manufacturing - Laserage Technology Corporation](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020321/568c0d251a28ab955a8ba1a8/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Why would an OEM utilize a CM?
• Pilot Production Line – Speed
• The CM already runs a manufacturing facility with the capability to produce product.
• No capitol lead-time required
• Training operations personnel is minimal since most likely similar products are already produced
–Cost
•Manufacturing is in CM’s floor space, usually lower cost then OEM.
•Technical staff on hand w/ little or no training needed
![Page 19: Laser Contract Manufacturing - Laserage Technology Corporation](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020321/568c0d251a28ab955a8ba1a8/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Why would an OEM utilize a CM?
• Volume Production – Demand Variations
• Keep an approved CM even if bringing production in-house. Utilize them for peak demand offset and equipment down-time.
– Core Competency • These operations (laser) are what we do well.
Laser uptime is critical to us.
– Cost • We understand (laser) production processes.
