Does this sound familiar: you want to increase efficiency and capability but your testing equipment scope is compromised by a yearly budget or lack of access to the proper field testing environment. It can be frustrating, but there are other options and here we will discuss one of them. Let’s explore the benefits of outsourcing your component testing and whether it makes sense for you.
Benefits Of Outsourcing
With the market constantly evolving, companies are being forced to develop more diverse product portfolios, forcing them to understand unfamiliar performance envelopes. This results in countless hours spent learning where and how to test the component before designing. Outsourcing may allow you to speed up the process, achieving iterative results without a significant upfront investment.
Free up resources & improve efficiency with outsourcing.
Is It Right For You?
Don’t allow your scope or ability to meet customer requirements to fall short due to a capital budget restraint. Outsourced testing services are considered an operating expense and usually are not subject to the level of financial scrutiny that capital purchases are. It would be a significant investment to procure these resources from scratch.
Nothing looks worse than being behind on a project. It is a quick way to lose rapport, trust and future business with a customer. Furthermore, missing a milestone or having a high component failure rate may impact your reputation in the industry. Outsourcing can be an insurance policy, especially when rapid prototyping may require testing to commence within a short timeframe, to a specific set of requirements.
