There are few reasons to align with an OEM... Quick response times: With an OEM, you're dealing with a precision product component expert. They can turn around a request or a product delivery request in a short amount of time, given their experience and expertise in building a specific product component. Quality component: When you ink a contract with an OEM, you're getting a production partner with years of experience in building specialty products and components. All parts built by an EOM are tested for quality and to ensure they match the partnering company's exact specifications. Good customer service: A solid OEM partner knows that if they don't deliver the product and support a partnering company needs, they'll go elsewhere to get it. Consequently, an OEM doesn't only deliver quality products, it's expected to back that product up with robust technical and engineering support. You get a warranty: Companies that partner up with an OEM should expect t...

What Is an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM)? An original equipment manufacturer (OEM) traditionally is defined as a company whose goods are used as components in the products of another company, which then sells the finished item to users. The second firm is referred to as a value-added reseller (VAR) because augmenting or incorporating features or OEM services  add value to the original item. The VAR works closely with the OEM, which often customizes designs based on the VAR company's needs and specifications. Understanding an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) VARs and OEMs work together. OEMs make sub-assembly parts to sell to VARs. Although some OEMs do make complete items for a VAR to market, they usually don't play much of a direct role in determining the finished product. A common example might be the relationship between an OEM of individual electronic components and a company such as Sony or Samsung that assembles those parts in making their HDTVs. Or a maker o...

 Open Compute Project The need for lots of computing resources comes with a number of fundamental issues, the chief among which is likely going to be standardization. Without a consistent size, depth, or definition to the size of a server, a deployment can easily end up as a hodge-podge of malformed hardware with no discernable high-level design methodology. While the silicon vendors or the OEM partners building the systems could have their own way of doing things, without a collaborative effort to define standards, we would still be in the 1970s or 1980s where systems end up unique for one particular customer. On top of this, there is an important overriding drive in the 21st century to ensure that enterprise deployments are power efficient as well. When Facebook was scaling its technologies and pivoting to completely public use in the late 2010s, it started an internal project around data efficiency and scalability. The goal was to end up with a solution that provided scalable r...

Solutions to insurer repair procedure severity grief might lie outside of claims Insurers might be trying to combat claim severity by denying reimbursement for required repair operations, rather than address the problem where it can truly be solved, based on a discussion at the July 15 Collision Industry Conference. Effectively, insurers are lashing out at consumers and body shops rather than the automakers and actuaries at fault for their predicament. OE procedures are what’s changed the industry.  Body shops thought they fixed cars to OEM standards , yet then received a bulletin they hadn’t. Were all those unscanned vehicles to be recalled? The concept caused “consternation” among insurers, who wondered, “‘How can that be?'”  Suddenly, a midsize insurer has $2.7 million daily average severity which hadn’t been accounted for, which is “really funny to them". “They push back a little bit,” Perhaps not every car needs a scan and some subjectivity can be introduced. a “big manuf...

Current state of the law in China US companies in this situation have a few options. First, US companies can file new applications every three years to avoid a cancellation action based on non-use. This strategy, however, is expensive and imperfect. Alternatively, the question arises – does OEM manufacturing in China constitute use of a trademark sufficient to defeat a cancellation action based on non-use? Like every good legal question, the answer is “it depends.” The law in this area has shifted over the last several years, and OEM use has been more consistently recognized as valid trademark use in non-use cancellation proceedings. In Distinct Seasons Sd. Bhd. v. Trademark Review and Adjudication Board, the Beijing Higher People’s Court held in March 2017 that, although the OEM products had not yet been circulated in the Chinese market and were only exported for sale, the registrant’s use was sufficient to defeat a cancellation action. The court, however, specifically stated tha...

Embedded software development is a multidimensional effort that you can address by leveraging open-source compiler tools and operating systems. Simplify Embedded-System Development with Open-Source Software The design, integration, and deployment of embedded-system software present many challenges related to the operating system, development environment, middleware, compiler, and other software tools. Although you can purchase commercial software products to meet many of your requirements, you might find that open-source tools offer the optimum approach to some or all of your embedded software needs. But be sure to evaluate the tradeoffs before committing to a specific approach. Commercial software generally comes with training and support. On the other hand, with open-source software, you’ll assume more development responsibility—but you can seek support from the open-source development community. Taking a mixed approach, you choose a commercial software package and employ open...
