Buying From Overseas: You Like The Price, But What About The Quality And Service?

By:


Lots of products are made overseas. Go to any department store and look at tools, sweaters or electronics and you will find that many items are made overseas. It is common knowledge that products from overseas cost less, in general than those made domestically.
Why not benefit from this when selecting components for the equipment you manufacture? What is holding you back?

If you are like most, fear is holding you back. Fear that the product you get will be sub-standard and appreciably worse than samples you may have received. Fear that your product will, literally be on the slow boat from China and you will be late in making your deliveries on your equipment for want of these components. Fear that when you have an issue, you will send an email with your concerns and get no response.

These fears are rational and prudent. There is no use in having low cost components if you cant get them or, if when you do, they are no good. These fears keep many people from reducing the manufactured cost of their equipment for these reasons.

It does not have to be like this. There are U.S. based suppliers who mitigate these risks and bridge these gaps for you.

They will:
*Provide samples of product as it will be delivered.
*Stock your OEM components beyond your current release in case you need to pull and order in.
*Provide technical supports.
*Save you money at the point of purchase.
Think about it. If you can get product that meets your requirements technically and quality wise and is backed with technical support and local inventory, why wouldnt you get it?

There are companies that do just this on product manufactured overseas. Ask your supplier if he will do this for you. Or, look for new ones and ask them.

Good Google searches will include low cost and the item you are looking for. E.G. low cost thermometer. You will have to look through a few sites, but the time spent will be worth it when you reduce a component cost by 30 to 80% without sacrificing quality and service.
