Today the link line CRM System small part to share with you why the supply chain problem is so difficult to solve.

as an example of a hammer cell phone, we have previously analyzed the Why is Lao Luo's hammer phone not selling ? ".

1. Why the hammer mobile phone is not only the production of mobile phones, even the round hub, chassis LOGO is difficult to mass production standards?

--I do not have the accessories of the hammer, I can not specifically say that these parts of the difficulties in the production of where, but there is one thing we must first understand, the hammer is to find Foxconn foundry, so-called foundry, is Foxconn in accordance with the hammer design drawings to produce. And whether a part is easy to "mass production standards", or whether it is easy to batch production of qualified products, the most important and most of the source is that the design of the part itself is easy to produce. So first think about a few questions:

Why is there a USB hub all over the street and a screwdriver on the street, and Foxconn can make almost any transformers, but not even the Hammer's USB hubs and screwdrivers?

Are there any parts of the hammer that are not easily machined?

You can think of another phone can not have a screwdriver, and the hammer is specially designed a screwdriver, this design is not too complicated (at least a risk of adding a material)?

is the LOGO design of the hammer suitable for etching onto glass? Are sharp corners too sharp?

is the glass etching process mature enough?

In general, we would like to answer this question should be "the hammer of the handset and its accessories of DFM in the amount of pre-production is enough?" To answer this question, one can only analyze the processing difficulty of each accessory.

2. How to solve the problem of supply chain when it is difficult to reach the standard of production?

Do production, from drawings to products, generally have such a few steps, the industry is similar, but not 100% Consistent: proofing, Sample testing , sample verification Small batch trial -Production If the product is not applied to a revolutionary new technology, strictly according to this process to execute, the problem of mass production will basically be exposed and solved in the small batch trial run, generally in the production of large problems and affect the market supply is not very likely.

But you know, to completely follow this process to run down, the time spent is not generally long, and the IT Industry as a competitive and time-running industry, many times the enterprise in order to win the order, will artificially shorten the process, so there will be a variety of Risk buy, or skip the direct production of proofing, or skip trial production direct volume, and then QC department every day special release, think not problems are difficult. To meet Foxconn this EMS old company, it is likely to run with the hammer every day, this part of the time to catch up, the part of the time to catch up, we want to carry out the risk of procurement, and responsibility from the hammer to the negative ba la ba la ... or Foxconn said, well that's what, samples we are done by hand, no problem, mass production also "may" no problem, but because of skipping the trial production (or too little to see), now on the quantity, the mold on the problem, to repair the mold, turn to expect (delay n months) ba la ba la ... Well, Lao Luo is dumbfounded. ...

To deal with these issues, what you need is a professional supply chain team to deal with Foxconn's foundries, and an experienced, uncompromising design and process team to deal with the technical problems of the production process-outsourcing to others does not mean that you do not have to take care of, rent a house also need to find a person to rent it? In the area of manufacturing, any design that does not compromise will only end with T1 -a low pass rate that cannot be shipped on time. It is best to help tools (such as CRM,ERP , etc. ) to solve your supply chain challenges.

3. How did Lao Luo spend a few months of his time solving the problem?

God knows, may be the overlord of the bow, through a large number of production (even if the number of defective goods more than good products) to obtain enough good products, also may be replaced by the supplier (for example, Foxconn's own internal production, not secondary outsourcing), it may be improved the process, or more expensive production methods, in short, the method is not no But actually, it has to be asked about the hammer or Foxconn inside.

4. The development of molds, probably a mold how much output than the manufacturers only cost ?

Depending on the mold, the supplier is different, this can not be generalize, but generally speaking,

First, the mold fee is the customer (hammer) out, and not Foxconn out, so Foxconn does not care about this matter at all.

Second, according to the experience: general open mold will be calculated according to the annual estimate of the amount of the cost of each product, to determine the apportionment of the cost can withstand only to open the mold. Therefore, generally as long as the sales volume is greater than the pre-opening estimate of the amount, basically can be considered a cost-effective.

Methods are always more difficult, no matter how difficult the supply chain management, enterprises will find ways to solve it. Hope everything can learn to manage the supply chain, to ensure the healthy and orderly development of enterprises.
