ABX Launches FastTrack - Quick Turn - TurnKey PCBA and NPI Production Program

July 17th, 2015

ABX Engineering, Inc. is a 30-year-old ISO 9001-2008 and ISO 13485-2003 approved contract electronics manufacturer which targets NPI, medium to large sized projects, providing coast to coast coverage with offices in San Francisco and San Diego. ABX has launched a new program FastTrack to further support customers in the product development, new product introduction (NPI) phases of product development.

The FastTrack program will offer ABX's customer full turn key production of PCBA's in as little as 5 days from receipt of complete material and documentation package. The ABX prototyping process includes Design for Manufacturability review and BOM component sourcing risk assessment.

ABX Senior Vice President Brian Helm stated, "ABX understands the importance of time to market and the need for quick turn of prototype/NPI builds in the engineering development and early production roll out for new products. ABX offers quick turn, full turn-key PCBA production builds including fast turn PCB fabrication, expedited materials procurement and quick turn PCBA manufacturing.

For many of our customers time to market is a critical element in their business plans. Any time we can save a customer time in the building of prototypes or in the first beta production runs simply put, it gives us both a faster entry into the eventual volume production and sales. Our FastTrack program allows us to support our customers from the products initial design stages, into long term production. As an added benefit to the client it also allows the customer to benefit from ABX's manufacturing related feedback early in the development that will help create a more produceable product and save them money in the long run. The customer does not have to go to a CM that just focuses on quick turns and then go else where when they are ready for a production program. We are really excited to be able to offer the FastTrack program to our customers which we feel will give us an advantage of offering the customer more overall value with ABX as their CM."

From FastTrack - Quick Turn, to volume production, for the life of the product, ABX provides complete manufacturing support saving the client money and time in bringing new products to market through volume production.

With 30 years of experience in materials management, high technology production and test, ABX is a leading CM in producing higher technology products, from circuit boards to complete turn-key systems, conducting manufacturing for industries including medical, life-sciences, aviation, lighting, broadcast, commercial, industrial, research and other customers.
