Customer achieves success in space
Industry Defense and aerospace Location Denmark
Aerospace production sets higher demands
After evolving into a leading aerial camera manufacturer, the company got a new request. A camera to use in space. This sets new, higher demands for the functionalities of the product, the materials, and the technology within.
The supply chain manager tells about the collaboration.
What has been important for you in this process?
“Flexibility. Flexibility to changes in specs/requirements, flexibility in planning/forecasting, flexibility in delivery. It is vital that we can find a mutually acceptable outcome to the problems when they occur.”
An end-to-end solution
Being a supplier of some of their components, they asked if we could manage a box build. From procurement to manufacturing and testing.
In close collaboration between R&D and our technical team, we manufactured and fully functional tested the box build. Ultimately, we developed customized ESD-safe packaging that underwent drop testing.
What were the important factors when you chose EA-Connect as a supplier?
“The ability and opportunity to consolidate from multiple vendors into a single one that handles all the necessary production processes. So we do not have to manage a multi-level supply chain, but can focus on a single point of contact.”
The solution
- Box build assembly – from procurement to shipping
- Fully functional testing
- Customized ESD-safe packaging and testing
In addition, they have a broad network of vendors, so we get much more right the first time – with minimum reworks or rejects due to poor quality/workmanship."
