Is CaliBaja's Maquiladora Services the Right Choice for You?

The following is a list of some of the inextricably linked variables that all must be carefully weighed out to determine if Calibaja Manufacturing Services is right for you:

Significant reductions in labor costs coupled with an unprecedented logistical convenience have made manufacturing in Mexico one of the world's greatest untapped resources for many manufacturing companies. However, this is not to say that every manufacturing company in the world would be more prosperous if they were to outsource their manufacturing operations to Calibaja. All businesses are different and in reality some companies stand to profit more by going overseas to manufacture their product, while other businesses are running very cost-effectively right at home. Profitability derived from outsourcing is completely dependent on the type of operation that you are going to outsource and many of the specific details associated with it.

Here at Calibaja Manufacturing Services we firmly believe that a successful manufacturing outsource can only stem from a mutually beneficial relationship, and that a mutually beneficial relationship can only be cultivated out of mutual understanding. Thus we have a policy of blunt honesty and complete transparency; we want our customers to understand how we operate and to know where they stand at any given time. In order for an outsource job to work for us, it needs to make sense for our customers first; our success is our customers success.

The following is a list of some of the inextricably linked variables that all must be carefully weighed out to determine if Calibaja Manufacturing Services is right for you:

Amount of Labor Involved

The crux of the whole manufacturing outsource industry is low labor rates, and there is no question as to whether Calibaja Manufacturing Services offers low labor rates. However, to truly benefit from our favorable labor market, your product must have a relatively high labor content.

Volume

If the volume of your product is extremely low, it might make financial sense to stay at home and to concentrate on building the business before tackling the outsourcing. However if volumes are moderate to high, the amount of money you would save on labor would likely make it worthwhile to outsource.

Stability of Product

If a product requires virtually no engineering/process changes and has an enormous volume, it may be more profitable to manufacture in China or South East Asia. However, if the product is subject to modifications or needs any external support, all of the cost savings associated with a slightly lower labor rate can easily be lost to travel expenses and missed production. The convenient location of Calibaja Manufacturing Services allows our customers the ability to modify their operation and implement any changes that may be required in a financially efficient manner.

Proprietary Nature of Product

Another major consideration when choosing where and with whom to outsource your manufacturing operation is the proprietary nature of your business or product. At Calibaja Manufacturing Services we pride ourselves on the protection of our customers proprietary information. Please read more about our commitment to protecting proprietary information.

Proximity to Target Market

Calibaja Manufacturing Services is conveniently located right next-door to the United States of America. Therefore, it might not be reasonable to outsource something with us that would require thousands of miles of shipping in order to be sold. However, we are a great option if the majority of your product ends up somewhere in North, Central, or South America, or even Europe. Click for location information.

Supply Chain Location

The above statement also holds true for supply chain location. If your supply chain is located anywhere near us, regardless of where the final destination of your product is, it would save you bundles of money and countless amounts of frustration to refrain from altering it in order to chase a slightly lower labor rate. Calibaja Manufacturing Services can start manufacturing your product immediately, without any changes to your supply chain.
