Our Approach & Expertise

On any other contract manufacturer’s website, you’ll find “from idea to installation” or some variation thereof. Not ours. We’re masters of one thing—building and testing small batches of electronic assemblies—and we do it better than anyone. We take your completed designs (BOMs, Gerber files, etc.) and build and test your small batches on demand. We’ll create as many different designs as needed, whether you know your usage patterns or not.

RBB Is Exclusive to and Optimized for Small Batch Assembly

How many times have you been told by your electronic contract manufacturer that your recurring small batch assembly work is critically important, only to discover later—when larger-volume jobs don’t come their way—that they’re unable or unwilling to support your needs? Whether it’s a prototype, a new product, a second-tier product line, a mature low-volume product, or a critical legacy system, if it’s needed in a small batch, RBB will move heaven and earth to get it to you, on time and under budget.

Small Batch Assembly Exclusivity and Optimization by the Numbers

At RBB, we say what we mean and mean what we say. Full transparency is a part of everything we do. So, when we say exclusive to and optimized for small batch, that’s not an overstatement. Here’s proof:

• We manage approximately 1,000 unique client assemblies annually
• Batch size ranges from 1-1000 unites, depending on complexity
• 90% of our jobs are for 100 units or less          
• Our average production time per job is 25 hours
• Our average job size is 35 units

You’ll See Efficiencies and Cost Savings

We understand that small batch clients rarely enjoy large-scale savings on materials, but RBB’s exclusive focus on small batch provides many other benefits that can help you save substantially.

• Purchase no more than what you really need: Minimum order quantities will never apply.
• Minimize or eliminate costly safety stock: We build more than 150 unique SKUs for many of our clients, and each of them carries only nominal safety stock. There’s always room in our scheduling system to quickly produce a small batch assembly.
• Capture more market opportunities by upgrading designs on the fly: Without a stockpile of pre-made assemblies, you can better react to the market. We can also make legacy boards just as easily as new ones.
• Enjoy competitive unit cost: Our unique approach to lean manufacturing will continue to drive your costs down.
• Save on overhead: Avoid the small batch hassles forced upon you by your current contract manufacturer—we prioritize small batches and they don’t.

If you manage a large portfolio of devices that require recurring small batches, RBB is the trusted partner you’ve always wanted.
