Cost Reduction
China offers significant manufacturing cost savings versus U.S. manufacturing, driven by Labor and Overhead advantages. Cost savings achieved will vary between 10% to 40% depending on manufacturing process employed and the level of labor/machining required.

Material and plating costs tend to be roughly equivalent to the U.S., therefore, the cost savings achieved is a function of Labor/Machining savings Less international freight costs. (See detailed cost comparisons in Capabilities section)

Capacity Expansion
Adding new equipment and maintaining older equipment is a very capital intensive proposition for U.S. manufacturers. Outsourcing manufacturing of custom parts allows companies to expand their capacity without having to incur the cost and risk associated with increasing production assets. It also makes it possible to ramp up manufacturing fast, because the equipment and skills are in place and ready to go.

Time and Risk Reduction
A significant amount of time and effort is required to establish a global manufacturing operation, particularly in Asia. Determining the right market, finding and auditing vendors, navigating the regulations around import/export and payment/logistics does not happen overnight. In fact, it can take years to get a viable outsourcing process in place. Without personnel on the ground to oversee manufacturing and work though issues, there will be a significant investment of time and resource involved throughout the production process.
