挑战
无钥匙安全品牌是商业地产建筑、停车场和多户住宅区设备的供应商，在生产过程中面临着重大挑战。该公司一直在与一家具有成本效益的台湾合同制造商合作，该制造商能够处理生产水平的批量。然而，COVID-19 大流行的爆发带来了频繁的工程设计变更，这需要该设施的大力监督。客户和制造商之间14小时的时差使得实时协作变得困难。考虑过通过海外航班来促进现场协作，但这会延迟生产时间并增加制造成本。考虑到疫情带来的不确定性，这种安排显然是不可持续的。
关于客户
本案例研究中的客户是一个无钥匙安全品牌，该品牌为商业房地产建筑、停车场、多户住宅区以及其他需要通过物理钥匙、卡和徽章进入的空间提供设备。该公司于 2021 年底被一家财富 500 强公司收购，这增强了该初创公司发展和吸引新客户的能力。在与 MacroFab 合作之前，该品牌专门与一家具有成本效益的台湾合约制造商合作。然而，COVID-19大流行给生产过程带来了挑战，促使该公司寻求更可持续的解决方案。
解决方案
该公司求助于北美制造商 MacroFab 来克服这些挑战。 MacroFab 独特且简化的电子制造方法提供了显着的优势。该公司的工程团队可以与 MacroFab 工程师就潜在的设计变更进行实时协作，从而无需进行昂贵的国际旅行。 MacroFab 强大的网络为该公司在电子制造生命周期的每个阶段的交付量方面提供了极大的灵活性。在继续大规模生产之前，一些设计需要更新。 MacroFab 建议该公司首先在美国为快速原型制作而建造的设施中完善其设计。一旦所有利益相关者都对新设计充满信心，MacroFab 将生产转移到墨西哥更具成本效益的工厂，提供与台湾工厂类似的价格结构，但没有工程设计变更的焦虑和僵化。
