Luminovo’s Sam Mason shares news with EMSNOW about the company’s manufacturing modules and the industry’s response to solutions for automating the quoting process. Sam explains how Luminovo’s precise modeling of an EMS’ manufacturing services can dramatically reduce the time it takes to respond to a request for a quote from customers. They take data from EMS’ actual operations to allow them to very accurately model their specific total manufacturing costs by PCB facility. e.g. whether in California or Washington or Texas, and then generate an accurate, comprehensive quote in hours rather than weeks.
For OEMs, the Luminovo platform enables companies to gather compliance data to reduce risk. The discussion covers how customer expectations have evolved and how AI has accelerated what is possible.
Luminovo just introduced a tool called Electronics GPT: a Chat GPT- style interface that marries the data precision of their platform to a user interface that is becoming so familiar to customers. Sam invites listeners to play around with it at https://www.electronicsgpt.luminovo.com/. The conversation ends with information about coming trade shows where listeners in North America can meet Sam and learn more about these powerful tools.
