Discover how Sanbor Manufacturing delivers quality, cost-stable, and tariff-resilient contract manufacturing for consumer electronics, from cable assemblies and wire harnesses to PCBAs and box builds.

Smart OEMs are increasingly adopting a hybrid sourcing model: U.S. manufacturers for fast-turn and small-batch jobs, and low-cost countries like Indonesia and Malaysia for high-volume, stable production. This approach balances agility with cost-efficiency. Success hinges on working with a trusted partner who has on-the-ground capabilities in low-cost regions. Sanbor Manufacturing, for instance, helps OEMs scale efficiently with a global footprint and strong regional presence

Selecting the right contract manufacturer (CM) for your cable assemblies, wire harnesses, and printed circuit boards (PCBs) is crucial for ensuring product quality, cost-effectiveness, and timely delivery. Whatever your industry, your choice of manufacturing partner directly impacts your bottom line and your ability to meet customer demands. In this guide, we will discuss the key factors to consider when choosing a contract manufacturer for these critical components.

ISO certification is more than a symbol—it’s a commitment to quality, efficiency, and customer success. For OEMs in the medical and industrial space, choosing a certified manufacturing partner protects your product, your brand, and your bottom line.

Medical device OEMs are increasingly outsourcing cable, wire harness, and PCB assemblies to specialized contract manufacturers. This strategy ensures regulatory compliance, design expertise, cost efficiency, and scalable production—critical factors in today’s competitive and highly regulated industry. Partnering with the right CM helps OEMs reduce risk, accelerate time to market, and focus on core innovation.

In today’s dynamic global manufacturing landscape, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) are urgently seeking alternatives to China for their cable and wire harness assembly needs. Southeast Asia, with exceptionally low-cost countries like Malaysia and Indonesia, stands out as the ideal region. OEMs can benefit from more stable supply chains, competitive pricing, and investment-friendly environments by shifting to Southeast Asia cable and wire harness assemblies to mitigate
