Practical engineering guidance for a more productive collaboration.
↗A practical PCBA enquiry checklist
Better information reduces clarification cycles and supports a more useful initial assessment.
↗From prototype to production
An approved sample is the starting point for a repeatable manufacturing and acceptance process.
↗Planning functional tests
Define measurable acceptance criteria grounded in real operating conditions.

A few things to know before we begin
Can we start with a product idea?
Start with the application, key functions, size constraints and target market. For existing designs, prepare Gerber files, a BOM, schematics and test requirements.
Can the scope cover boards or complete products?
Discuss PCBA production, sourcing and complete-unit assembly separately or together. Full products also need agreed mechanical parts, wiring, labels, packaging and outgoing checks.
How are pricing, minimum quantities and lead times set?
They depend on design readiness, component supply, process complexity, testing and volume. Agree sampling, pilot production and batch production separately.
How do Hong Kong and Shenzhen work together?
K-CORE coordinates customer requirements and commercial discussions through Hong Kong, with JKR’s mainland resources supporting engineering and manufacturing. Project documents identify the manufacturing entity, quality criteria and delivery responsibilities.
