Production and Manufacturing Test

Validation engineer working in lab

Increased product complexity, merging of technologies like battery and wireless into devices, and diversification of global supply chains drive both a technical and business need for improvements in production test.

Test Performance is Business Performance

Best-in-class production test teams don’t just build test stations—they execute against a test strategy that actively supports their company’s performance. Without this, teams can be seen as “just a cost center,” which limits investment. Despite ever-growing coverage requirements, tightening NPI schedules, limiting budgets, and functional globalization, teams are achieving success by using standardized processes, systems, and data to improve development productivity, test station design quality, and operational efficiency.
