Why We’re Unique

BUYING SITUATION	RBB	TRADITIONAL CM	LOW COST REGION
I have a schematic and need a few protoypes built.	•	°
I really don’t know what my demand will be, but I need 100 right now!	•
I’ve got high volumes, my design is stable, I have a good forecast and price is my biggest issue.		°	°
My product is a higher runner but my engineering department never stops tweaking it, giving my CM fits!	•
I am a large OEM and want to use a single provider for all of my electronic assembly services.		°
When I call for only 5 boards from my current supplier, I feel like a second class citizen!	•
I have several hundred SKUs to manage, each with its own forecast! Help!	•	°	°
We just acquired a new company and I’m not familiar with these new boards. I need help stabilizing the situation, even though my business may not stay long term.	•
I have a need for the same level of service for UL Control Panels!	•
I ask my suppliers to hold inventory and finance my payables.	•	°	°
I expect excellence in service, quality, delivery, and communications at all times.	•	°

• Compare your experience with traditional Contract Manufacturers…Key points of differentiation for RBB include:
• As the Premiere Electronics Job Shop, RBB does not pursue high volume work and instead focuses exclusively on small batch (1-200 unit) job sizes.
• RBB embraces low volume, often unpredictable demand for high quality electronic assemblies.  It’s all we do.  
• Our aggressive Job Shop LEAN implementation continues to drive costs down and delivery performance up in this difficult-to-serve market segment.
• Customers enjoy peace of mind by partnering with a company that makes small jobs routine.  A few statistics:
  • We manage 1000 custom assemblies each year
  • 90% of the Jobs we run are for 100 Units or less.
  • 80% are for 50 Units or less.
  • 65% are for 25 Units or less.
  • Average Job Size is 28 Units.
  
  
• Documentation control and ECN procedures are critical and tightly managed since often there is exactly one chance to build something.
• Our operation is designed to satisfy every customer by getting as many small orders through the shop as possible.  As the parts arrive, customer jobs drop into the production schedule.  
• Customer documents are always up-to-date and portable, no questions asked.  We see ourselves as “temporary stewards” of customer product lines and recognize that as volumes grow the natural transition of any assembly to a higher volume CM may be necessary.
• RBB’s powerful combination of pcb assembly, box build and a UL-certified panel shop all under one roof allows more flexibility and price advantage for turnkey applications.

So whether it’s a prototype, a new product just entering the market, a mature product with low volumes, or a legacy system that needs critical support, if it is made in a small batch then RBB is your supplier of choice!
