Logo, colour and label application
Requires approved artwork, placement direction and production review.
OEM & ODM
Define the change. Protect the release.
Customisation is handled as a controlled evaluation with named inputs, outputs and approval gates. Scope is confirmed before it becomes a production instruction.
Evaluation scope
Four request groups enter review.
These are discussion categories, not a promise that every option is available for every model, order or market.
Protection, marking and document pack
Requires channel, handling, language and logistics inputs.
Manual, labels and document scope
Requires the target market, language and current file-status review.
Power, control, structure and attachments
Requires engineering, safety and compatibility review before quotation.
Engineering boundary
“Can be evaluated” is the honest starting point.
Safety-critical structures, control logic, compliance scope, tooling, timing and minimum quantities are not published as pre-approved options.
- Do not release an unreviewed structural change.
- Do not reuse one market document for another configuration.
- Do not treat a visual sample as production approval.
Cooperation timeline
Six stages with a visible handoff.
- 01
Requirement intake
Buyer market, product, volume, application and requested change are recorded.
- 02
Cross-functional review
Manufacturing feasibility, safety impact and document implications are identified.
- 03
Scope alignment
Approved items, open questions, exclusions and the commercial basis are aligned.
- 04
Sample or approval
The agreed proof method is completed and the accepted state is recorded.
- 05
Production release
Only the approved specification and assets move into the production handoff.
- 06
Inspection & shipment handoff
Configuration, records, packaging and the applicable document set are reconciled.
Inputs & deliverables
Make ownership explicit.
Every workstream records what the buyer supplies and what the review can return before an approval decision.
| Workstream | Buyer input | Review output |
|---|---|---|
| Product requirement | Target market, intended use, volume and requested configuration | Feasibility questions and the configuration review record |
| Brand application | Approved logo artwork, colour reference and placement direction | Application proof for buyer approval before release |
| Packaging & labels | Market, language, handling and channel requirements | Reviewed artwork scope and packaging handoff record |
| Documents | Required language, market and buyer document list | Availability status, gaps and model-specific release scope |
Approval gates
Proof first. Release second.
Sample or documented approval
The agreed proof method, accepted configuration, artwork and open items must be identifiable before production release.
Output: an approved reference stateProduction handoff
The production instruction, inspection scope, packaging assets and document status must refer to the same approved configuration.
Output: a controlled handoff packageOEM project intake
Start with one controlled requirement set.
Provide the target market, product family, expected volume, requested changes and available artwork or specifications for evaluation.
