When you travel the road with Avnet, the route to market will be both profitable and generate a high degree of satisfaction for your customer.
Multiple roads that all lead to success
Avnet has developed a deep understanding of the unique requirements our customers have for reaching the market tied to their business model. We’ve used our experience delivering highly effective and efficient market engagements to create the following route to market options.
- Traditional OEM: When your solution is built on a dedicated hardware platform running your Intellectual Property (IP) and you want to present it as a single product, the traditional OEM route is best for you. Avnet will support your design efforts, solve for the supply-chain and offer complimentary services to provide a complete solution to your customer or channel.
- Virtual OEM: In the case where you want to focus strictly on your application that’s certified on specific hardware that you don’t have to manage, Avnet’s virtual OEM program is exactly what you’re looking for. In the virtual OEM route, there are two different ways to engage:
- You work directly with your end customer to sell and license your software application and direct the customer to Avnet for the hardware. We’ll handle the transaction and supply functions. You still make all the decisions around the design configuration, type of platform, etc. while we do the heavy lifting.
- Avnet will bundle your application with the hardware by installing the image and sending the complete system to your customer or channel partner. Avnet will manage the entire process for you.
