GMSWW can do these things

October 5th, 2009

We are sometimes asked what type things can we do at our factory in West Jefferson, North Carolina.  I have briefly listed the primary items below.

RoHS, I.e. lead free assemblies with no up charge or leaded assemblies if that is required..

KanBan and order fulfillment for delivery to you for your just in time requirements.

Electromechanical assembly including light press work and light welding.

Full “box build” which works well when you would like us to put your finished goods on our shelf and then ship direct to your customer as you require.

Excellent MRP system to interface with your MRP system for low error rates.

Excellent, modern equipment with skilled operators to operate and manage assembly. We’re able to assemble very large SMT boards: 20 inches by 24 inches.

Great materials purchasing department to source components from around the globe.

Serious about ISO quality without the chaff and cost associated with lesser quality systems.

Employees with great work ethic, and always eager to get it right.

Reliable, honest customer service that makes the best look mediocre.

Fast quoting with your circuit board Gerbers and Bill of Materials.

Our low overhead assures you of competitive pricing.

I hope that you will soon let Global Manufacturing Services, Inc., GMSWW quote a project for you

Kanban and Fulfillment Services

March 1st, 2009

Putting finished goods on our shelf, to a specified level, ready to ship when you call for it, is a sort of kanban system. And when we ship to your customer as you send us your purchase orders or releases is a sort of fulfillment service.  Global Manufacturing Services, Inc. cheerfully do these functions for our customers.  

 One of our customers pays us when the goods are placed on our shelves and then when they get an order for any number of products; we pull the goods and ship to their customer.  We have a blanket order and based on our knowledge of their product usage, we stock to some reasonable level.

Another of our customers simply gives us a blanket order with a specified number of goods to keep on the shelf at any given time.  When they trigger a shipment with a release order, we invoice them for the quantity shipped and then make sure that a replacement quantity is expeditiously put back on the shelf for their next order.

 We are happy to work either way.  These are long term reliable customers that appreciate what we do for them and we are more than happy to work in this way.

If you have a project and you need kanban or fulfillment service, please give us a call at (336) 246-5143.
