China Tech Source

How I Work

Every engagement starts with a feasibility assessment — but that's just the beginning. I stay with you through the entire journey from idea to manufactured product.

Product Feasibility Assessment

Before you source, know if it's buildable.

I evaluate whether your product idea is technically viable across hardware, firmware, and cloud — so you know the real cost, complexity, and risk before committing to a factory.

What You Get

  • Technical viability assessment across hardware, firmware, and cloud
  • Real cost analysis — not just factory quotes
  • Risk identification and mitigation strategies
  • Technology stack recommendations
  • Go/no-go decision framework

Supplier Matching & Evaluation

Not all factories are what their Alibaba page says.

I find the right ODMs and solution providers for your product, and verify their actual capability — so you choose with confidence.

What You Get

  • Supplier shortlist based on your specific requirements
  • On-site or remote capability verification
  • Technical assessment of factory capabilities
  • Reference checks with existing clients
  • Negotiation support and terms review

Technical Advisory Throughout Development

Your product journey doesn't end at factory selection.

I stay with you through the entire build — from requirement alignment through production and delivery. Someone who speaks both sides.

What You Get

  • Requirement alignment between you and the factory
  • Technical review of designs and specifications
  • Sample evaluation and feedback
  • Production readiness assessment
  • Ongoing technical support through delivery
