OEM Services

Complete OEM Service Scope

Hardware Customization

Custom housing color, material (aluminum alloy / ABS / PC), button layout, fingerprint module placement, display type and camera specification. Define the button layout and call flow in an ODM smart intercom or mechanical-button brief so feasibility can be checked.

Firmware Development

Review boot logo, UI language, feature selection, sound prompts and localization by model. Supported languages and RTL requirements are confirmed in the configuration record.

White-Label Mobile Access App

For iOS and Android, define the white-label mobile access app’s logo, colors, app name, store account and release owner for the selected platform and project.

Private Cloud Server

Review cloud or local deployment, domain, data region, administration, external interface and support responsibilities. Privacy and data-governance requirements are confirmed by destination and project.

Certification Support

Relevant CE, FCC, UL, SASO or TRA routes can be reviewed by model, hardware/firmware configuration, brand, importer and destination. Documentation and lab coordination are scoped after feasibility review.

Custom Packaging

Packaging, inserts, manuals and language scope can be reviewed by programme. Market-specific labeling is checked against the final documentation route.

Development Process

OEM Development Process — Step by Step

1

NDA & Initial Consultation

NDA and discovery scope are agreed before specifications are shared. The review covers product requirements, target market, applicable certifications and the decision timeline; timing is confirmed for the project.

2

Technical Specification & Quotation

A product specification and factory-direct quotation are prepared after the scope is reviewable, including BOM, tooling (if applicable) and certification assumptions. Timing is confirmed with the project scope.

3

Contract & Deposit

OEM manufacturing and confidentiality terms are documented before release. Deposit, IP ownership, tooling, firmware and brand-asset terms are negotiated and recorded in the agreement.

4

Engineering & Sample Development

ODM: firmware, app and packaging design; OEM: hardware mold, PCB layout and firmware as scoped. Engineering samples are dispatched for buyer approval after feasibility; timing is confirmed by project scope.

5

Sample Approval & Certification

Buyer tests and approves samples. The certification route, test evidence, Declaration of Conformity and any parallel work are confirmed by model, market, evidence and lab path.

6

Mass Production & Quality Control

Define the functional test, sampling or third-party inspection method, evidence package and release owner for the selected order scope.

7

Shipment & Ongoing Support

Confirm the transport method, trade terms, shipping documents, warranty route and after-sales owner for the destination and supplied configuration.

FAQ

OEM & ODM Program — Common Questions

For the full smart-lock sourcing checklist, see the smart lock OEM/ODM and private-label FAQ.

OEM/private-label configuration applies approved branding, packaging or selected software changes to an existing product platform. ODM covers deeper mechanical, electronic, firmware or system changes and requires feasibility, validation and written change control.

Standard supply starts at 200 units, OEM branding starts at 500 units and ODM development starts at 1,000 units. The selected model, configuration, destination, NDA terms and written quotation determine the final terms.

Timing is confirmed after the model, change boundary, sample or validation gates, component availability, destination documents and production plan are reviewed. The quotation should separate development, sample approval, production and transit assumptions.

OEM/private-label configuration can include approved logo, packaging, language, interface and firmware settings by model. The available scope, sample requirement and document route are confirmed before quotation; deeper hardware or system changes move to feasibility review.

Certification scope depends on the final hardware, radio functions, firmware, brand role, importer route and destination market. Existing reports are matched to the supplied configuration; new or changed hardware may require additional testing, documents or labeling review.

In standard ODM, Trudian retains IP ownership of the hardware design, mechanical tooling, and base firmware. You own your brand, packaging design, and app branding. In full OEM with custom hardware specifications and tooling paid by the buyer, the buyer owns the industrial design and tooling. IP ownership terms are documented in the OEM agreement before production begins. Territory exclusivity clauses can prevent the factory from supplying identical products to named competitors in your market. Firmware source code escrow is available for full OEM arrangements.

The quality plan should identify incoming inspection, in-process checks, functional tests, final inspection, records, nonconformance handling and any third-party inspection. The applicable method and evidence are agreed for the selected model and order scope before production release.

Supplier evaluation

Source by evidence, not by a product-family claim.

A smart lock certified supplier or video intercom certified supplier should identify the exact model, destination market and document set under review. A factory-direct proposal must also state the production configuration, sample status and release owner; “factory direct” is not a substitute for model evidence. The same evidence standard applies when assessing Trudian as a smart lock factory direct supplier or video-intercom factory-direct supplier.

For a branded platform, Trudian can be assessed as a smart lock white label supplier, video intercom white label supplier or video intercom private label supplier. Where the brief changes hardware, firmware or system behaviour, the route becomes a smart lock ODM supplier or video-intercom ODM supplier review with feasibility, validation and written change control before production. For an existing video-intercom platform with defined branding and documentation, the relevant assessment is video-intercom OEM manufacturer scope—not a new-product claim.
