Overview:
PerkinElmer, a technology company, headquartered in Wellesley, MA is a leader in test instruments and high-end optics for the Life Sciences and Fluid Sciences industries. PerkinElmer has operations in over 125 countries, is publicly traded on the NYSE and is a component of the S&P 500.

PerkinElmer was introduced to Jumpsource through participation in a Freemarkets Auction, as part of a corporate driven focus on cost reduction. After visiting our Asian Operations and auditing our manufacturing partners, PerkinElmer determined that Jumpsource was a partner that could accelerate their entry into lower cost Asian manufacturing, while minimizing the inherent risk. Jumpsource's model was particularly attractive, given the challenges associated with placing and managing PerkinElmer's high mix, mid/low quantity portfolio.

PerkinElmer has signed a multi-year agreement with Jumpsource for the annual production of over 180 different parts and has expanded the relationship across multiple divisions.
