Custom vs. Standard: A Framework for Hardware Companies
About This Event
A custom part can cost far more than its price tag. Join Hardware FYI and Fictiv for a live conversation on when to go custom, and when a standard or configurable part does the job.
Benji Chia from Hardware FYI sits down with Tessa Axsom from Fictiv to talk through how to make the call. They'll cover:
The three questions behind every sourcing call: function, total program cost, and differentiation
What a unit price leaves out: tooling, design changes, lead time, supply risk, and inspection
How the right default changes from prototype to high-volume production
When in-house manufacturing wins, and when an on-demand partner does
Format: live webinar. About 55 minutes of conversation, then 15 minutes of Q&A. Bring your questions.
