From individual orders to global sourcing

 

SIMRAD Egersund AS has opted to work more intensely with the GPV PCB. From being a supplier of individual orders, GPV has thus become a central partner.

 

SIMRAD Egersund AS can quickly identify at least two reasons for choosing GPV as its supplier. Firstly, the Group provides display panels of appreciably higher quality – i.e. better finish and fewer faults – and secondly, working with GPV means considerable savings on PCB production.

 

For SIMRAD, it is all about preserving a leading position on, for example, the American market, where the challenge is to maintain and develop the status of the SIMRAD brand. This requires continued product development centred on areas such as user-friendliness, displays and presentation, leaving the actual manufacture of mechanical components and electronics - which is where GPV is now being involved as an active partner.

 

SIMRAD has been involved in a number of areas, including the auditing of GPV's partners in the Far East. This covered the cables manufactured by the GPV Group's own production facility in Thailand and the output of the partner PCB factories in China.

 

SIMRAD has previously received PCB deliveries from the Far East, but encountered the all too familiar problems with quality and delivery reliability. These problems have been solved through the establishment of a working relationship with the GPV Group.
