The PEMEA Advantage
Three key benefits of choosing us as your electronic contract manufacturing partner can be summed up as being the "PEMEA Advantage" They are:- Overall Quality of 99.9%: We take the quality of our work on your assemblies very seriously. We track the number of documented returns compared with assemblies built to come up with an overall quality percentage which we are pleased to say stands at over 99.9%.
- No charge for rush orders: Rush service is available free of charge if scheduling allows. Most contract manufacturing companies automatically charge a fee for rush orders. Because we maintain the flexibility that a larger contract manufacturing facility can't, we are able to provide rush orders free of charge.

A key service we provide is our Order Status Tool. If you need to easily get up-to-date information about your PCB or cable assembly order, the Order Status Tool is just what you need. Features include:

How does it work?
First, you provide us with the blueprints and the Bill of Materials (BOM). Next, you choose how you want the handle component procurement for your board or cable assemblies. We offer three different options:
- Consignment: You buy the parts needed for your custom cable or PCB assemblies and send them to PEMEA as a kit.
- Drop-Ship: You buy the parts and have your vendor ship them to PEMEA. When you place an order we use the inventory previously sent to PEMEA to build your assemblies. If you choose this option, PEMEA provides you with an online tool that lets you see at anytime how much of your inventory we have on hand, find out how much inventory will be used based on the amount of assemblies you would like us to build, and provide direct links to your vendor's product page to make your ordering of components easier.
