Supplier Control
All material suppliers used are carefully selected via our Global supplier control process, which helps us select suppliers that meet or exceed our quality, capacity, delivery, and cost requirements.
Reduce total number of parts
Utilize VAVE (Value Analysis and Value Engineering practices to reduce overall cost and maximize reliability.
Utilize standard components
There are quite a few benefits to using standard components versus custom ones, such as high availability, on-time supply, better deals for quantity and standard components are less expensive.
Multi-functional design parts
Multi-use parts can be shared within multiple products, which allows less purchase orders from the supplier, versatility, less production time, and ultimately less cost.
Product Engineering
Lean, reliable manufacturing operation ensures products that consistently meet design and performance characteristics.
Product Validation Testing
We use state-of-the-art inspection and metrology equipment with full traceability so raw materials can be linked to products.
Lower-cost supply
Our reliable products are strategically sourced for your success, as we strive to find ideal options for your business.
Failure Mode & Effects Analysis
FMEA is a method for recognizing and reducing potential failures and their impacts, to improve reliability.

Frequently asked questions
DFx consists of methods, guidelines, and standards for creating better quality products at the concept design phase.
Design for Manufacturing (DFM)
Design for Testing (DFT)
Design for Assembly (DFA)
Design for Reliability (DFR)
Design for Cost (DFC)
Design for Packaging (DFP)
Depending on complexity, we can offer feedback on DFx within 1 week.
By simplifying the design and reducing the number of parts, DFM can minimize the sources of failure and the need for frequent maintenance.
DFM is important because it's about creating the process for the product as much as the product itself.
Frequently asked questions
It is a business model or strategy for Eastek to own its entire supply chain, which requires integration and expertise at multiple steps of its manufacturing process.
Single point of contact and Single Margin. To streamline the operation and reduce cost, Eastek serves as a single point of contact to cover numerous steps within the supply chain. Eastek's vertical integration relieves the pain and headache that result from having multiple contact points.
As a single margin contract manufacturer with vertical integration, Eastek charges a single margin for the collection of services being offered. Rather paying a markup on molding, another on PCBA, and another margin on top of that, a single margin is paid for all of the processes combined. This consequently reduces the cost of both the product and the supply chain management required to create the product.
From design and development, to full scale production and fulfillment, we offer everything from concept into a fully functioning device.
Some process example steps are:
- New product development engineering
- Molding / Overmolding
- Extrusion
- SMT / PCBA
- Complete Device Assembly
- Quality Engineering
- Packaging and Fulfillment
With multiple vendors, timelines and dates can become difficult to plan for and meet. A vertically integrated contract manufacturer are often capable of providing more accurate timelines and proficient at predicting and planning for the effects of the supply chain disruptions. With the ability to communicate internally when issues arise, teams can work together to fix problems, in order to save time, money and resources.

- Maintain customer satisfaction
- Always improving
Quality is a culture at Eastek. Quality begins day one for us, and never stops being our top priority. Our planning, processes, and decisions are all built from the foundation that quality is first.
We are always pushing to meet or exceed our customer's expectations and requirements. Our continuous improvement efforts at Eastek are an endless journey. We are alway searching for further optimization and better solutions.
Eastek has experience producing top quality products for various industries. Our quality management systems are certified worldwide including ISO:9001:2015, ISO:13485:2016, IATF 16949:2016, ISO:14001:2015, ISO 45001 2018.
Eastek's QA process stems from a four step cycle that is continuously used for consistent quality and improvement.
Step 1: Plan
- Identify project requirements and needs, set goals and timing, identify risks, identity resources, develop a solution and plan to carry out.
Step 2: Do
- Implementation on set project/need based on the documented plan. Includes training and standardization on the associated processes.
Step 3: Check
- Does the implemented solution work? Where goals and dates achieved? Evaluate the results in terms of performance, and ensure performance sustainability.
Step 4: Act
- Understand root cause(s) on why solution didn't achieve targets/goals and establish another plan for improved solution.
- If all goals achieved, congratulate team on success.
- Even after project completion, Eastek continues to look for further improvements and optimizations following this PDCA cycle.
It starts with communication. Eastek looks to be in constant communication with our customers to ensure your requirements and expectations are always clear.
Whether through periodic meetings, quarterly business reviews, scorecards, or customer satisfaction surveys, Eastek is always looking for feedback and always gauging where we stand in meeting our customer's requirements & expectations. We continuously monitor our customer's satisfaction and adapt/adjust where needed to ensure customer satisfaction in maintained.
