NEOTech is well known in the industry for its commitment to provide high-quality and high-reliability electronic manufacturing services and maintains focus on continuous improvements for internal processes and employee development. With this new training center, NEOTech increases opportunities for manufacturing team members to acquire enhanced skillsets and further career development. The company is very excited about the training center’s grand opening being a highlight for customer tours, allowing them to showcase NEOTech’s investment in improving workers’ production skills, which in turn guarantees higher levels of quality for their customers product builds.

“By offering instructor lead training and hands-on simulated production work sessions, NEOTech gives each team member the opportunity to learn vital skills that help them grow in the company and helps NEOTech retain a good strong workforce,” commented Arturo Mendiola, NEOTech Vice President of Operations. “Our goal is to empower our people to take a proactive role in improving themselves, which increases their value-add to the organization and increases our value-add position to our customers.

NEOTech’s goal is to successfully convert customers’ product technology into engineered products, providing the most capable supply base, manufacturing products with care, and delivering them on time. The company is large enough to offer refined Tier 1 tools, processes, and capabilities, yet small enough to provide individualized care and service. NEOTech provides tailored project-by-project services that focus on each customer’s individual, unique needs. The result is a true collaboration in which the customer’s needs are met – or exceeded – in a timely, efficient, and cost-effective manner.

The role of electronic manufacturing services (EMS) companies is very often misunderstood. Some perspectives, however, are helpful to frame the question of what is on their minds, especially in the current global environment. EMS companies build products but they are not really “product” companies. While they may provide design services, the designs are still owned by their customers. As a result, they do not have the right to select or change components. In most cases, the EMS company will still be responsible for purchasing these components which are typically 70–90% of their cost to produce the end products. They also do not determine what volumes should be built.
