If you are currently outsourcing any of your electronics device programming, you understand that some of the biggest difficulties with this process that cost you time and money include:
Inventory Float
If you are using outsourced programming on a regular basis, you know that at any one time there are days worth of programmables inventory sitting in transit or at your outsourcing partner’s factory. This is a costly and inefficient use of your working capital.
Inability to Ramp
Have you ever needed to ramp up production at a moment’s notice? If so, you have probably experienced how difficult it is to get in the queue at your outsourcing partner in a timely and cost-effective manner.
Slow Code Changes
What happens when your engineering department decides that a software change is required? If you are using an outsourcing partner, you have to send your entire programmed inventory, including anything currently in transit, back to get programmed again at a high price and a long lead time.
Bring your programming back in-house using Data I/O’s industry-leading equipment, and regain cost-savings, flexibility, and scalability! Make just-in-time code changes at a moment's notice, ramp production up or down on the fly, and save time and money at the same time by using Data I/O’s lean solutions.
