We have just launched a new contract assembly house and I was wondering if there was anybody out there that had an honist formula for calculating labor cost for the purpose of bidding assembly work, "is there a good canned software package that actua

We have some new customers that are requiring class 3 IPC standards, and my question is, how would that translate into a labor rate increase as compared to class 2 rates? I'm assuming the labor quote would increase by at least 15-20%, if not more. An
