The five questions we asked
Every company in this cell is measured on the same questions, written the way a buyer would type them. That is what makes the ranking a comparison rather than a collection of anecdotes.
- 1“Best contract manufacturing and assembly companies in Michigan”
- 2“Who supplies turnkey contract manufacturing and assembly for boxed consumer electronics in Michigan”
- 3“I need a Michigan contract manufacturing and assembly partner for a 25,000 unit electromechanical product launch, who should I talk to”
- 4“Top contract manufacturing and assembly suppliers in Michigan for OEM operations buyers”
- 5“Which Michigan contract manufacturers and assemblers can handle mixed-model production with final packaging and labeling”
- 6“List 20 contract manufacturing and assembly companies in Michigan with their specialties.”the roster question
Each question is asked more than once, which is why a company's score is out of 15 answers rather than out of the number of questions.
