Life cycle management & assurance

Avoid costly redesigns. We ensure the availability of your components right from the start: the design phase of your electronics. We validate alternatives before availability issues arise. We ensure that your product can be manufactured throughout its intended lifespan.

Peace of mind with Lifecycle Management

  • Strategic component selection during PCBA design

    We validate components based on our knowledge and experience regarding lifespan and availability. This helps us prevent surprises or an unexpected end-of-life status for your PCBA assembly. As a result, your hardware always maintains optimal manufacturability and stability throughout its entire lifecycle.

  • Validate alternatives early on for greater certainty

    In addition, during the development phase, we can validate alternative components for the most critical applications. This allows you to act quickly if it later turns out that components are (temporarily) difficult to obtain or simply become too expensive. By doing this groundwork in advance, we can shorten our response time in these types of situations.

  • Proactive lifecycle management

    After the development phase is completed and production is underway, our engineers can still be of service to you. By managing your product’s lifecycle, we can proactively prevent problems caused by unexpected supply issues.

  • Manufacturability throughout the entire product lifecycle

    What applies to components also applies to assembly and testing. Throughout the lifecycle of your products, we support our customers by evaluating the latest technologies and capabilities for use with existing products. This ensures that the way your products are manufactured remains up-to-date and cost-effective.

Our services

Here’s what Confed can do for you

We offer a comprehensive range of services for demanding OEMs and module manufacturers. From the initial hardware and software design through to the efficient mass production of electrical, electronic and mechanical assemblies.

Our engineers design hardware, embedded software and enclosures to address complex challenges. We contribute our expertise at an early stage regarding system architecture, component selection and product design. By taking factors such as testability and repeatability into account, we minimise risks and ensure a seamless transition to the subsequent production phases.  Find out more.

 

With our specialist department, we produce prototypes and pilot batches at lightning speed. This enables you to validate functionalities at an early stage and implement design changes efficiently. We incorporate a robust testing protocol from the outset, ensuring you have a reliable and fully scalable product design before production volumes increase. Find out more.

We assemble printed circuit boards using advanced SMT and THT processes, designed to ensure consistent output. Every stage of production is documented and fully traceable. By integrating automated optical inspections and in-circuit tests, we guarantee the highest first-pass yield. This results in reliable electronics for your business-critical applications and supply chains. Find out more.

At our UL-certified facility, we produce high-quality cable harnesses and wire assemblies cost-effectively. Whether it’s simple cabling or complex cable harness assemblies, we guarantee quality through final electrical testing and strict process control. Our scalable production methods are perfectly tailored to your specific requirements and tight delivery times. Find out more.

We combine printed circuit boards, cable harnesses and other purchased components to create complete end products and mechanical modules. Our assembly processes are fully geared towards high-mix, low-volume production for a wide range of industries. Using 5S and lean methodologies, along with strict quality controls, we achieve flawless final assembly that meets the very highest industrial standards and customer specifications. Find out more.
