The moveDefined work runs at RELY, at your facility or ours
NextYour people back on core production
Contract assembly and subassembly
Your best assemblers belong on your main line.
Which subassembly would you gladly stop building?RELY takes over recurring subassemblies, component procurement and production-ready kits, built to your print and delivered checked and line-ready.
Case Study No. 20: a 2,000 sq ft subassembly area shut down and 700 assembly hours saved in the first three months. See the case
Inspection, containment and rework
The defect isn't your only cost.
One suspect lot creates inspection, rework, held inventory, supplier coordination and production people pulled off the line. RELY runs the agreed work to your criteria, with lot-level reporting, at your facility or ours.
Case Study No. 17: 8,000+ customer hours reclaimed and 4.4M+ parts sorted in 2025. See the case
Parts on hold now? Call 262.853.1634. We respond to urgent sorting and containment inquiries within one business hour.
Production transfers
Keep the product. Move the production.
Found your next machine?RELY takes on mature assembly, non-core production, and legacy or service-parts programs. Equipment, tooling, fixtures, test systems, work instructions and material can move with the work.
Case Study No. 21: 3 legacy product lines transferred and 10 UL part numbers requalified through PPAP. See the case
Supplier quality programs
Your team keeps the authority. Not the workload.
You set acceptance criteria, boundaries, disposition and release. RELY runs crew deployment, training, supervision, segregation and reporting.
Where your commercial process allows, the supplier can fund the work directly. Customer approval or site access may still be required.

The first conversation
Start with one operation or one NCR.
- Define the problem
The part, volume and current process, or the supplier, failure mode and NCR. A short description is enough.
- Agree the scope and controls
Criteria, boundary samples, reporting and release path for quality work. Print, fixtures and cadence for assembly.
- Run a defined pilot
A set scope, measured against what you agreed. Then decide what else makes sense to move.
You do not need a BOM, a technical package or a large program to start. Bring one NCR, one hold tag or one operation. Your team keeps acceptance criteria and disposition authority throughout.
