Proven Manufacturing Capabilities

FAQ

We do not recommend customization based on other schemes. Based on Seeed’s existing products, we have accumulated rich design experience and manufacturing experience, which can deliver the products customers want more quickly and at lower cost, and enhance the user experience. Of course, if customers have specific demands, we also welcome to contact us by email at [email protected]

Typically, the 1st batch of engineering samples is around 5pcs, and the 2nd batch of samples is around 10pcs. Sample costs are included in the NRE fee. If the quantity exceeds this range, we will charge for additional samples. After receiving the customer’s requirements, we will communicate with the customer offline about the sample quantity and quotation.

We understand that the first version of the sample is very important to the customer. We provide first sample as soon as possible to help the customer start internal validation. Based on our standard product’s customized design, we deliver the first version of the sample in about 3-4 weeks, ensuring that the sample is functional. While the customer receives the sample for verification, we will continue to perform other testing and validation.

Seeed will deliver embedded firmware and software drivers according to custom hardware, as well as the code and guidance.

We do not recommend using molding for structural customization of less than 5000 pieces, as the cost of molding is very high, and the MOQ is also very high. We suggest using sheet metal cutting to achieve custom enclosures that are suitable only for installation, fixing and protecting the board, and are made of metal materials.

During product development, we conduct electrical performance testing, functional testing, performance testing, and reliability testing for each batch of sample build to ensure the quality of the design. We also provide customers with open test plans and test reports for review based on their needs.

We will contact the customer within 24 hours by email to clarify any customer requirements and provide guidance on the next steps of cooperation.

After project is kicked off, project manager will be responsible for communicating with the customer. The customer can contact our project manager by email for any requests. For complicated cases, we can communicate with the customer via phone or video at any time. Depending on the customer’s needs, we can arrange weekly/bi-weekly phone/video meetings to maintain regular communication with the customer and synchronize project progress.

We understand that there may be changes in customer requirements during the product verification process. As long as the general functions have not undergone major changes, we support modifying the design and re-sampling for verification. However, if there is a fundamental change in the product definition, we recommend starting a new customization case, which means re-quoting and evaluating the delivery time.

IP is owned by Seeed by default, and we promise that the customized design used for a particular customer is unique and exclusive, so the customer does not have to worry that the product customized by Seeed will be used by other customers. If the customer strongly requests ownership of the IP, we can negotiate the IP fee with the customer.

Customers can contact our project manager by email to request repeat orders. Our sales staff will continue to follow up on the order processing.
