Complete Guide to PCBA quotation Process
At present, many customers have switched from single link purchase to PCBA processing Because PCBA casting materials really save time, trouble, worry, money and effort From the customer's point of view, everyone is more concerned about how to choose the right manufacturer or what the preventive measures for PCBA are Then let's start from the PCBA quotation process:
Complete Guide to PCBA Quotation Process
Good quotation process varies from customer to manufacturer. However, in the process of high-quality PCB design and SMT processing quotation, there must be some standards. For example, not every manufacturer is qualified to partICipate in every project.
Circuit board

Each specific project requires manufacturers of different types or with different qualifications to provide PCB processing services that meet quality standards This is why the company conducted a comprehensive background survey, qualification, equipment, process capability, and procurement supply chain survey before dealing with them During the investigation, it is necessary to pay attention to the product case, quality, service, oral report, authenticity, etc
Business communication: communication is a key part of the smooth development of each quotation Frank communication is very important at every step of product manufacturing from the beginning of transaction to surface mounting and final product delivery The effectiveness of business communication directly affects the probability of errors in obtaining the required items In addition, when both parties communicate frequently, their understanding of the project will become clearer
Signing contract: the contract files of both parties are necessary for SMAll or large transactions, and include evidence of each action you take against the manufacturer. In the contract, you can add all contents from the transaction date to the delivery date, terms and conditions of the project, fees, materials used, etc.
Assembly matching list: according to the BOM, the components used in the placement process must have good quality. Because the performance of the circuit board will depend on the superiority of the data. Obtain information about the components used from the manufacturer and check their quality and characteristics in detail.
Quotation details: As with all types of transaction procedures, business communication and negotiation costs, and cooperation at a price acceptable to both parties are prOSPects for success. In addition, if the product has a special process, it can be quoted according to the quality requirements of the product. Specify bills of materials, expenses, and calculate expected expenses to manage costs.
Process evaluation: In order to complete the verification function of the project, the completed circuit board must be evaluated and tested. Through the evaluated data output, we can know whether the circuit board meets the expectations.
Conclusion: The PCBA quotation is a round trip process, through a series of discussions and negotiations Only when the expectations of both parties are the same, a perfect quotation will appear
