Two colleagues going through numbers together on one laptop

For cost engineers who want a defensible number in a day instead of an estimate in a month

Luminovo costs an electronic assembly from its BOM: parts at market prices, the board from its Gerber files, assembly and test from a labor and machine-time model. Use it for target costs, should costs and decisions on where to build.

Your numbers arrive after the decisions

The cost model is an Excel file with last quarter’s prices.
Labor and test cost stay a guess until a manufacturer quotes them.
By the time the number is solid, the design is frozen.

How you cost an assembly in a day

Cost a BOM at today’s market prices

Every line matched and priced on live offers, with price breaks, MOQ and reel excess at the volumes you plan.

Cost assembly and test along with the parts

Placements, machine time and test strategy at your rates. Compare flying probe and bed of nails side by side.

Compare where and how to build

Run the same product through other regions, alternates and volumes, and see which change moves the cost.

Agree on a fair price with your EMS

Put the quote and the should cost side by side, block by block, and discuss the assumptions behind the gap.

Customer story

From estimates to evidence, before the design is final

Leuze · Manufacturer · sensors for industrial automation · 1,500+ employees

Leuze could only cost a product precisely once its data reached SAP, after design. Now the team costs it in the concept phase, including production plans and test strategies. Re-evaluating a sensor built in Asia showed it could be built in Germany for less, after replacing single-source and hard-to-buy parts.

<1 daycost calculation, was several weeks
17%lower production cost through re-shoring
10%savings potential in the first component benchmark

“We identified components that were either unavailable in Europe or restricted to a single source. After the analysis, we found alternatives that were more cost-effective and offered better availability. This allowed us to bring production back to Germany.”

Dimitri SkoricProject Procurement, Leuze

A cost model is worth most while the design can still change.
