PassageMaker (PM) is a
US owned and operated China
based company specializing in helping
clients find suppliers and manage
their China supply chains, with a special
focus on vendor coordination, Intellectual
Property (IP) protection and final assembly
in China. |
|
| PM's assembly center serves
as both a quality gate and “black
box” to protect Intellectual Property.
Simply put, semi-finished goods are delivered
to their facility from client approved
sub suppliers and then final assembly/packaging
takes place at PassageMaker. As the sub suppliers
don’t see the finished product, their
ability to steal ideas and designs is limited.
While final assembly is taking place under the
PM roof, inspection takes place to confirm
quality. |
