How CMs and EMS providers use us

Consolidate ESD and industrial packaging buys for multiple client programs onto one PO and one freight charge.

Drop-ship packaging directly to client-designated warehouses (Mexico, Texas, Midwest) without holding inventory in your own warehouse.

Hold consigned stock of custom PCB ESD trays for repeat-build programs — you draw against the stock JIT.

Provide audit-ready COCs (ANSI/ESD STM11.11) for end customer ESD program audits, badged with the end customer's part number on request.

Support custom PPAP / FAI documentation for automotive, aerospace, and medical programs.

Why consolidation matters for CMs

A typical mid-size CM runs 50-150 active client programs across multiple industries. Each program has different packaging specs, different volumes, and different shipping addresses. Procurement teams often end up with 8-15 different ESD packaging suppliers, each shipping small quantities at LTL rates.

Consolidating to one ESD supplier (us) typically saves 18-25% on packaging spend through freight consolidation, volume tiering on common SKUs, and reduced PO administration. Drop-ship-to-client-warehouse eliminates the double-handling of stocking at your facility and reshipping to the customer site.

Custom PCB tray program for CMs

For high-mix CMs running 10+ unique PCB designs through reflow and pack, custom thermoformed PCB ESD trays are usually a hidden cost — each new design wants its own cavity tray, but volumes are too small to justify standalone tooling.

Two patterns we support: (1) shared-tooling cavity inserts for our existing PG548 / JEDEC trays, where one die runs multiple inserts at lower NRE; (2) consigned stock of custom trays under the CM's blanket order, with the end client paying through the BOM.

Documentation flow

Every shipment includes: pack list with end-customer PO reference, COC with surface resistance test method and measured range, lot / batch traceability, ROHS / REACH SVHC statement, and a Certificate of Origin where applicable for cross-border shipments.

Available on request: full PPAP Level 3 package (capacitor lines), FAI / first-article inspection reports, customer-specific incoming-inspection certificates.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you bill our customer directly and not us?

Yes — drop-ship invoicing common in CM supply. Customer pays Tyson Supply Chain on a PO from the customer, you remain the program owner. We sign customer-specific NDAs as needed and treat the customer relationship as confidential.

What is the typical quote turnaround on a new CM program?

24-hour quote turnaround on standard ESD packaging buys and stock SKUs. 3-5 business days on custom-tooled items where we need to scope tooling NRE. For full PPAP-required automotive packages, 6-8 weeks from sample shipment.

Do you stock common ESD packaging at your warehouse?

Yes — 20 ESD container SKUs, conductive corrugated boxes, PG548 trays, foldable boxes, ESD bin shelves all in stock at Los Angeles. Most CM buys ship same-day from this stock.

Can you support a small CM with low volumes?

Yes — there is no minimum account size. We work with small CMs running $200K-$2M/year as well as Tier 1 EMS providers. Stock-SKU purchases have no MOQ above carton lot; custom tooling has a 500-piece MOQ as standard.
