Situation 1: Lowering Overall Costs by Outsourcing Parts and Components to BMF

The majority of our customers come to us for this reason: They sell complex industrial machines or systems in their home markets and have final assembly facilities in their home country. In order to increase competitiveness, they outsource specific parts and components to BMF. Since China-made castings are so competitively priced, and since BMF can supply to the quality level clients need and expect, the net effect is significant cost reductions for the home office. Rather the supplanting the home country operation, BMF supports it by lowering costs where appropriate.
     
  Situation 2: Industrial Marketing Companies Contracting All Manufacturing to BMF

This is the second most common situation: A customer who is engaged entirely in marketing some kind of industrial brand (usually a range of parts where the casting comprises the bulk of the product’s value) that BMF is contracted to manufacture in its entirety. The client typically has limited facilities in the home market, and relies on BMF to not only manufacture the part, but to undertake all product packaging, warehousing and logistics—often shipping directly to our client’s client.
     
  Situation 3: Localizing Industrial Products for the China Market

In recent years, this has been a growing part of our business: An industrial brand wants to introduce a product (or range of products) to the China market. They contract BMF to manufacture their parts in China. They gain a) logistical convenience; b) confidence that manufacturing costs are appropriate to the China market, and C) assurance that quality levels remain high.
