Electronic Components Assembly for Automotive Industry

1. BUSINESS PROPOSAL EXAMPLE COMPANY Executive Summary

The BUSINESS PROPOSAL EXAMPLE COMPANY specializes in the production of electronic assemblies for the automotive industry (automotive) and radio engineering. The company represents the interface between the producers of individual electronic components and the BASIC BUSINESS PLAN TEMPLATE FOUNDERS of finished electronic products from both areas.

The finished electronic assemblies can be differentiated into radio remote controls, gas and radiation meters as well as various control units for racing and rail traffic. As a company based in  BUSINESS PROPOSAL EXAMPLE REGION, the BUSINESS PROPOSAL EXAMPLE COMPANY focuses on the  BUSINESS PROPOSAL EXAMPLE REGION market, but in the future XXXX and XXXX will be targeted. In a period of X to XX years, the company will grow into a stable company in BUSINESS PROPOSAL EXAMPLE COMPANY REGION market for automotive and radio technology and employ about XX employees in the production of electronic assemblies. The company strategically targets customers in the automotive, radio technology and aerospace sectors. The suppliers of the individual electronic components, which are needed for the composition to an electronic assembly, refer to the company from  BUSINESS PROPOSAL EXAMPLE REGION.

The founding member BUSINESS PROPOSAL EXAMPLE FOUNDER qualifies for this enterprise due to his successfully completed training as Electronic Communications Specialist, in the field of information technology, as well as his many years of professional experience and expertise in the field of electronic communication, especially in production and project management.

BUSINESS PROPOSAL EXAMPLE FOUNDER maintains a long-standing and positive relationship with eleven suppliers of electronic components and was able to win over the companies for future cooperation.

BUSINESS PROPOSAL EXAMPLE FOUNDER has already contacted four potential customers in BUSINESS PROPOSAL EXAMPLE REGION , so that nothing stands in the way of a successful launch of the BUSINESS PROPOSAL EXAMPLE COMPANY.

Product

The founding company will offer the production of electronic components for the automotive industry, the radio technology and, in the medium term, also for the aviation industry by purchasing individual electronic components. The company already has seven suppliers in SIMPLE BUSINESS PLAN TEMPLATE REGION. 

The manufacturing process for the complex assemblies consists of four elementary production steps:

• Paste Printing
• Assembly of the machine
• Brazing
• Test Phase

Paste printing is the most important process for producing complex assemblies. In the paste printing process, the solder paste is pressed onto the components using a template. In this step, the tiny pads of the components get as much solder paste, so that soldering creates a solder joint. The solder joint must exactly meet the customer requirements, so that special care and accuracy are required at this point. Solder depletion and solder surplus must be avoided at this point, so that no open solder joints or solder bridges occur. Process optimization and quality control ensure high product quality in this step and avoid an increase in production costs.

In the next step, the components are prepared for the placement machines and placed on the circuit board. It is very important that there is no component confusion during assembly, which prevents intelligent software. When the circuit board is fully populated, it can finally be soldered in the oven. In the soldering oven, the molten solder paste on the circuit board connects to the contact surface of the component and can now cool down.

In order to ensure optimum product quality, the finished component is then matched with a reference component via intelligent camera systems. Only after this step is the production process completed. The BUSINESS PROPOSAL EXAMPLE COMPANY specializes in the production of four product groups with a material usage of XX percent.

X) Radio remote controls

The company will manufacture radio remote controls for the automotive industry as well as for forestry. In modern forestry, the radio remote controls serve as a massive relief and the timber harvest is through the modern technology, for example, in cable cranes in the forest b because they’re more economical and safer.

X) Gas and radiation meters

Danger from toxic or flammable gases and vapors can be reliably detected by the modern technology of a gas detector. This creates integrated sensor detection that prevents serious accidents and poisoning.

X) Control units for racing

In motor sports, engine controls are used, which take over the control of ignition and electronic injection systems

X) Control units for rail traffic

The on-board computer shows the various displays, in and on the train, up to the driver. For example: outside the first car, line, train number and train stop.
