Products & Services

SMS Technologies provide each of their customers with the solution which best fits their unique needs. The solutions involve some or all of our portfolio of services, all of which are delivered with the highest quality. We ensure our customers have the right components, available at the right time, and in the right place.

Manufacturing : ensuring product quality

All SMS Technologies products meet quality and regulatory standards, as well as the customers' own standards. We are happy to certify this for each component.

All assembly is conducted in our own modern, purpose-built assembly area. We can provide authenticated change control on all products and processes, and can integrate with customer’s change control systems and engineering data systems.

We continually evaluate and improve our processes. Typically, our skilled workforce produces assemblies with mechanical, pneumatic and electronic features. Volumes vary from low to high, assemblies complex to simple. Although the materials we use are predominantly plastic and metal, the range is unlimited; and whilst the products are mostly medical, we also cover military, laboratory and scientific fields.

Inventory management : ensuring product availability

Inventory management is changing in response to the pressures of world-wide markets, reduced time to market, the opportunities of global sourcing and improved manufacturing technology.

SMS Technologies have the experience and expertise to respond to these challenges, and use them to reduce the costs, direct and indirect, of holding inventories.

We are happy to take on and rationalise existing stock. We manufacture or source new products as required, we also manage shelf life and obsolescence. We work closely with our customers to forecast usage.

We take pride in the accuracy of our controls, as shown by our regular stock checks.

Case Study

Product innovation involves much more than just clever design. Production is all-important and often requires just as much innovation as the design process. Outsourcing within the UK is in many instances now becoming recognized as less expensive in terms of total procurement cost than Far Eastern manufacture.
