Parts Procurement
Professional kitting services can reduce customer-held inventory and all of its associated overheads. Out production ready kitting services brings all Bill of Materials (BOM) requirements together, and performs parts pre-screening and verification of the electronic components to ensure efficient assembly and timely delivery of PCB projects.
The function of bringing all material requirements together is essential for the assembly process to perform with the highest efficiency. All components required per the BOM must be not only be included, but they must be properly identified, properly packaged, including appropriate overages for the PCB assembly process to be effective. Our skilled and knowledgeable staff can help you with your quoting of the BOM and timely procurement of your materials, which are the key elements to being able to produce kits for assembly.Kitting Services

Inquiries and Quotes
If you are currently working on a project and need a quote for your build, we can provide a cost estimate for your Bill of Materials (BOM). We can accept your BOM in a number of formats, but we recommend that you use our Bill of Materials Template when building your BOM. Please be sure to set the 'Type' field to the correct value, and use DNP (do not populate) for any components we will not be placing. Your Bill of Materials should include:
• Quantity of each part
• Reference designator
• Part number (Digi-Key, Mouser, etc.)
• Reference designator
• Part number (Digi-Key, Mouser, etc.)
• Part description
• Package description (0402, 08085, etc.)
• Type (SMT, thru-hole, BGA, etc.)
