In most cases, your consigned kit will undergo a thorough audit upon reaching our dock. We c
ompare the BOM to the components and verify part numbers and quantities. An audit report is usually generated within 24 hours of receiving your kit.
There may be times when your kit may not undergo a full audit. These include:
Quick Turn Assemblies (24 & 48 hour turns)
- In these instances, we attempt to verify devices as they are populated and report to you as issues arise.
Consigned Kit Considerations
- Attrition: Have you accounted for attrition? No assembly process is perfect so we recommend that you provide the following overages:
- Passive Devices: 2-3%
- Active Devices: 1%
- High Cost Devices: 1 extra or 1%
- Special Handling Requirements: You will need to provide special handling instructions if your kit includes devices that require special solder reflow profiles, cannot be washed in an aqueous cleaner, or other special handling requirements.
- Shortages: Shortages typically account for almost all delivery delays.
