Engineering and Auto Components
In short
- For machining, casting, forging, sheet-metal and assembly units around Chennai, Ranipet and Hosur.
- Buyers fix the price, ask for a reduction every year and schedule deliveries by the day.
- Profit depends on knowing the cost of each part: machine time, material yield, rejections and tooling.
What usually goes wrong
- A quote is only as good as the machine-hour rate and cycle time behind it.
- Material that leaves as swarf (metal cuttings) or rejects is paid for in full.
- A yearly price reduction can only be met from cost that has actually come down.
- Daily schedules push stock back onto the supplier.
What we do for you
- We work out machine-hour rates by machine or cell, and a cost per part from cycle time and set-up time.
- We spread tooling cost over the parts it makes.
- We compare input weight with finished weight by part, and credit scrap at what it actually fetches.
- We cost rejection and rework, in-house and at the customer.
- We give a costed answer to a price-down request, and to a material price change.
- We check whether cost records and cost audit apply.
We work from your own records, and we show you how each figure was worked out.
