- High per‑unit cost – generic imports can be up to 45 % more expensive than a domestic‑sourced OEM.
- Inconsistent dimensions – tolerance drift > ±0.025 in leads to re‑work and scrap.
- Long lead‑times – 6‑8 weeks from order to delivery stalls assembly schedules.
- Regulatory risk – non‑certified parts may fail CE, FCC or ISO audits.
A 2025 industry survey (n = 312) showed that 38 % of manufacturers cite “end‑cap quality” as the top cause of production downtime. Imagine shaving 2 days off each batch cycle.
