ManufactureLink delivers more ways for you, the designer, to collaborate with manufacturers and develop industry based solutions to your manufacturing challenges:
Unsure of how to manufacture your product, or do you have a particularly challenging manufacturing problem you need to solve?
Don’t spend endless hours searching the internet or contacting manufacturers all over the globe for a solution. Let ManufactureLink’s Request For Innovation (RFI) and collaboration tools to do the work for you.
Simply raise a RFI with collaboration enabled, upload drawings and input as much information as possible to describe the manufacturing problem. If you need to secure access to your information, apply an NDA lock to all files or restrict access to only suppliers you invite to collaborate with. Submit your RFI to our network of manufacturers, or pick and choose the expertise, accreditation or industry experience you feel you need.
Manufacturers who are matched to your RFI are automatically notified and know you need them to provide not just a quote, but a solution. Collaborate with suppliers using our secure messaging feature and discuss the solutions and your requirements. Suppliers can attach drawings and files to their messages to communicate their solutions and provide quotes for their final solution, as with a regular RFQ.
