Blue Sky Manufacturing


Blue Sky Labs enables contract manufacturers to profitably offer 5-Day Turnkey Prototyping Services. Our Blue Sky Manufacturing (BSM) order-processing system automates much of the work of turnkey manufacturing, eliminating inefficiency. We enable contract manufacturers to provide turnkey service, while only incurring consignment-contract costs. We eliminate order processing costs by up to 70%, turning prototyping in to a profit center and engine for growth.

Why should you care about delivering better prototyping services?
In short, the answer is:

  • Prototyping is a $1 Billion+ market that will stay in the United States
  • Customers are willing to pay for fast, reliable prototyping services
  • Prototyping contracts help you sell your production services
  • Losing a prototyping contract is a chance for your competitors to sell their production services to your customers.

    • How Does Blue Sky Labs Help?
    The BSM system enables your customers to quote, approve, and place prototype orders online, while viewing real-time pricing and availability information from distribution. During order placement, your customers approve all part matches, make arrangements for unavailable parts, place Printed Circuit Board (PCB) orders, and have everything shipped directly to you. All necessary information is immediately available, eliminating traditional turnkey’s back-and-forth over poorly identified parts, missing information, or out of stock items. Compared to consignment, you are offering better, more complete service to your customers.

    For you, it’s just like a consignment build. Your customers get 5-Day Turnkey Service!
