Contract Manufacturing

Build the right production relationship around the product.

SharpSigma can manage the manufacturing lifecycle across source selection, qualification, launch, change control and serial performance while remaining accountable for the agreed scope.

The problem

What this solves.

The product needs more than a purchase order: technical transfer, supplier qualification, launch governance and operating ownership have to be managed as one program.

When to call

Call for production transfer, new source qualification, bridge-to-serial transition, managed supply or supplier-performance recovery.

How work is verified

Qualification, launch and serial performance are measured against defined technical, quality, capacity and commercial acceptance criteria.

Execution

What SharpSigma does.

The work follows the specific requirement—not a generic checklist. Each step produces an output that can be reviewed and verified.

  1. Define product, quality, capacity and commercial source criteria.
  2. Evaluate and qualify the appropriate production route.
  3. Control technical transfer, APQP, PPAP and validation.
  4. Manage change, nonconformance and supplier performance.
  5. Maintain customer-facing ownership for the agreed scope.
