Unless there is a compelling reason to manufacture ‘in-house’, outsourcing the manufacture of a new product is probably going to represent less corporate risk and resource allocation than the in-house effort. This is true at both the prototyping and full-manufacturing phase.

Prototyping new designs is a core business for an ODM like WIN Enterprises. Consequently, we are able to produce working designs quickly based on your specifications. We do this by relying on COTS designs that come close to your exact requirements and modifying these. We are also able to utilize our extensive design library. We are able to access design modules representing hundreds of successful engagements to speed product development.

The time required to produce a high-quality, working design is reduced based on WIN’s experience. We streamline an appropriate COTS design to your exact requirements and optimized it for performance needs at hand. Even if we begin with the input from the back of the proverbial napkin, the speed of our design process will surprise you.

Off-shore manufacturing helps WIN deliver unique, purpose-built designs at COTS pricing. WIN facilities in the U.S. and Taiwan are ISO 9001:2000 certified, so quality is always a focus.

X86 SPECIALISTS

Application Specific Versus x86 Microarchitecture

Since it’s inception in 1991, WIN Enterprises has specialized in x86-based solutions. This approach provides a customer with access to the vast majority of operating systems, applications, and utilities available around the world.  A trend toward implementing x86-based solutions now includes even those applications that have traditionally been insistent upon dedicated microarchitectures, such as video processing. Virtually all application areas are moving to x86.

WIN’s ability to design the motherboard, chassis, and bezel means your products have a unique, differentiated look in the market. The fact that the electronics are genuinely optimized for your application means you are able to offer your customers a purpose-built solution with just the right features, versus offering a solution based on standard hardware that looks identical to many others in the market.
