詳細(xì)說明: Thank you for your time this AM. As requested, a brief profile of C-Vision and our interest in China follows:
C-Vision is a Canadian owned and operated electronics design and manufacturing services company based in Amherst, Nova Scotia, Canada. Our Amherst operation consists of a 55,000 square foot, state of the art facility. The facility was established in 1973 and has been under the current ownership since 2002. We are ISO 9001:2000 certified and have a lead-free manufacturing readiness program in place (in compliance with RoHS and WEEE).
C-Vision provides OEMs with a one-stop source for electronic and mechanical design and manufacturing services. We provide our customers with a complete end to end solution -from design, through supply chain and materials management, to manufacturing, testing, and fulfillment.
C-Vision specializes in high mix, medium volume production of printed circuit board assemblies (through-hole, SMT, mixed), complete box-builds, modular electronics assembly, and cable assemblies. New product introduction (NPI) is a specialty. We also offer our customers a wide range of innovative value-added services.
Users of C-Vision's manufacturing and design services are OEMs which use printed circuit board technology in their end product (e.g. controls, data acquisition, etc.). Users span a wide range of industries including the telecommunications, electronics, electrical, marine, aerospace, military, medical, gaming, and HVAC sectors.
China is an increasingly important market for electronics manufacturing, particulary for high volume electronics assembly. Many large OEMs worldwide are evaluating their supply chains for printed circuit board assembly, box builds and cable assemblies. Many of these same OEMs recognize the inherent challenges (time difference, logistics, transit time, sheer distance from market) of manufacturing in China and often choose to select a combination of Chinese produced and North American produced printed circuit board and cable assemblies.
While C-Vision specializes in high mix, small to medium sized production runs, Chinese contract manufacturers tend to focus on large volume, low mix production. By partnering with a contract manufacturer based in China, we are thereby able to provide a complete service package over the total volume spectrum.
C-Vision would consider a partnering arrangement that could take many forms. We would consider joint venture, direct investment / acquisition, as well as an agency type agreement. Initially, we would approach this as a strict supplier relationship (as you suggested) until a comfort level is achieved. For those contract manufacturers in China that are producing their own products (e.g. ODM), we would also consider a licensing arrangement to manufacture these products in Canada and/or the ability to gain the distribution rights for these products. We would also consider final assembly in Canada to facilitate local or North American content requirements.
We are seeking an electronics contract manufacturer that is capable of large scale, high speed production runs (printed circuit board assemblies and cable harnesses). They should be able to provide both PTH (through-hole) and SMT (surface mount) assemblies. An equipment list would need to be reviewed by C-Vision to determine compatibility with our needs. The Chinese contract manufacturer should also be able to provide in-circuit and functional testing where required.
The ideal partner will also be a specialist in supply chain management, including sourcing of low cost, high quality components for turnkey production builds (bare boards, passive and active components, etc.).
We would prefer a partner located in Guandong province. We would also require references from existing OEM clients.
Finally, we also request your assistance in identifying potential suppliers of the following products: -printed circuit boards (bare boards) -high quality, competitively priced passive and active electronics components
Any information you can provide regarding prospective candidates would be appreciated. Our website is www.cvision.ca. I look forward to receiving your reply. Please contact me if further information is required.
