ODI, Design, Development and Production Services is a company specializing in designing, developing, and producing embedded electronics products for OEM customers, ODM, and their own branded products. Established in 1993, ODI has been developing 6-12 products annually. Their expertise spans across various industries, including Consumer, Industrial/Commercial, Medical, and Military, offering services in acoustics, imaging, biometrics, wireless technology, microdisplays, motion control, custom algorithms, and embedded devices.
One of the unique aspects of ODI's business model is its ability to compete favorably with both onshore ID firms and offshore contract manufacturers, thanks to their relationships with chip companies and unique business model. Although they charge upfront non-recurring engineering expenses, their profitability is directly linked to the success of the products they develop, as they benefit when the products start shipping.
Additionally, ODI is able to offer volume pricing, even on small production lots, through their chip manufacturing partners. This approach reflects their commitment to aligning their success with the success of their clients.
