Six phases. One program manager owning your program. An audit trail that holds up under regulatory scrutiny. This is how an Avant program runs.
Your engineering team shares the BOM. Ours runs it against our common component library and supplier database. We flag end-of-life parts, single-source risks, and any items where we can offer a qualified alternative with shorter lead times or lower DPPM.
Our process engineering team examines your design against our SMT capabilities. We produce a specific report: stencil aperture concerns, reflow profile compatibility, thermal stress points, panelization options. If a layout change would improve yield, we note it with the engineering reason.
You receive a quote and an assigned program manager before any production work begins. The schedule includes specific milestones: first article approval, qualification run, production ramp, and steady-state cadence. No quote leaves Avant without a feasibility check behind it.
We run a first-article build for your engineering team to qualify. Qualification includes the appropriate combination of operational life testing, temperature cycling, HAST, shock and vibration, and data retention — built to your specification and your regime. Every result is documented and traceable.
Production runs in Reynosa, Pharr, or both — coordinated by your program manager. Every lot is traceable to its component-level provenance. Yield, DPPM, and cycle time are reported on the cadence you choose. Quality records are retained for the audit horizon your industry requires.
Finished goods ship from our facilities to your destinations on the schedule you set. Consigned inventory, purchased inventory, or just-in-time release — your choice. Our import/export team handles customs documentation and TAA certificates of origin where required.
Every Avant program produces the same set of deliverables. Every program has the same boundaries. This is the standard.
Knowing where we stop is as important as knowing where we start. These boundaries keep our programs disciplined and our commitments honest.
Wafer fabrication is its own discipline. We partner with the foundries that do it well and focus on what happens after the die is packaged.
Below a certain volume, our process discipline becomes overhead rather than value. We’ll tell you upfront if your program is better served elsewhere.
Our discipline costs what it costs. We compete on yield, continuity, and the audit trail that holds up under regulatory scrutiny.
Every claim we make can be substantiated by a report, certification, or operational record. If we can’t document it, we don’t promise it.
