From component sourcing to final assembly and testing, we handle every aspect of the process, ensuring a consistent, high-quality solution.
Our expert team works with you to simplify the manufacturing cycle, reduce complexity and eliminate the risks of managing multiple suppliers, so you can focus on what matters most – your product’s success. MPE’s turnkey PCB assembly solutions make your vision a reality, from prototype to high-volume production.
What is Turnkey Assembly?
Turnkey PCB assembly is a streamlined PCB assembly manufacturing solution where a single provider manages the entire process – from component sourcing to final assembly and testing. For engineers, product designers and sourcing managers, this means a smooth workflow with fewer supply chain headaches and faster time to market.
With turnkey PCB assembly, contract electronics manufacturers take care of procurement, component placement, soldering, quality control, testing, as well as packaging and logistics. This eliminates the complexity of coordinating multiple suppliers, ensuring that every part of the process aligns with the required specifications.
Whether you’re designing a high-reliability medical device, a precision automotive PCB or a complex industrial controller, turnkey PCB assembly ensures consistent quality and traceability.
Turnkey Assembly vs Full Box Build
Turnkey PCB assembly and full box build serve different needs in the electronics manufacturing process.
Turnkey PCB assembly focuses on producing fully populated circuit boards. The provider handles everything from component sourcing to assembly, soldering and testing. This is ideal for engineers and product teams looking for a hassle-free solution that delivers tested, production-ready boards without managing multiple suppliers.
Full box build extends beyond PCB assembly. It includes enclosure integration, cable harnessing, final product assembly and even packaging. If your project requires fully assembled electronic devices ready for end-use deployment, a full box build service or our bespoke PCB assembly might be the better choice.
For many product designers and sourcing managers, turnkey PCB assembly strikes the right balance between efficiency and control. It allows you to focus on innovation while your manufacturing partner ensures high-yield, defect-free production. If enclosure integration and final assembly are part of your requirements, full box build is a logical next step.
Benefits of Turnkey Assembly
Turnkey PCB assembly provides significant advantages for engineers, product designers and sourcing managers aiming to optimise production, reduce costs and ensure product quality.

Partial Turnkey PCB Assembly
For customers who want control over sourcing, our partial turnkey PCB assembly service allows you to supply some components while we handle assembly, testing and quality assurance.
Component Verification & Inventory Management – We inspect incoming parts for authenticity, quality and accuracy, managing overages and shortages to prevent production delays
Precision PCB Assembly – Using Surface Mount (SMT) and Through-Hole (THT) technologies, we ensure high-accuracy component placement and soldering
Testing & Inspection – We perform Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) and functional testing to ensure quality and performance
Packaging & Logistics – Safe anti-static packaging, labeling and shipment coordination for on-time delivery.
With partial turnkey, you maintain oversight of key components while we manage the complexities of manufacturing.
Full Turnkey PCB Assembly
For a fully managed production process, our full turnkey PCB assembly service covers everything from sourcing to final delivery, minimising supply chain complexity and lead times.
Component Sourcing & Procurement – We source from trusted suppliers, managing inventory, overage control and counterfeit prevention for a seamless supply chain
PCB Assembly (SMT & THT) – High-precision placement, reflow soldering, wave soldering and selective soldering for optimal reliability
Quality & Testing – includes Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) and functional testing to ensure quality and performance
Final Assembly & Logistics – Custom labeling, serialisation and secure global shipping for a hassle-free delivery process
Scalable Production – Seamless transition from prototyping to high-volume manufacturing with quality control.
Full turnkey assembly reduces lead times, lowers costs and eliminates risks like component shortages or counterfeit parts, providing a seamless path from prototype to production.
Which turnkey assembly service do you need?
Choosing between partial and full turnkey PCB assembly depends on your project requirements, budget and required level of control.
Partial Turnkey: Best if you want to supply some components or manage procurement while outsourcing assembly and testing. Ideal for projects needing custom or specialised parts.
Full Turnkey: The most efficient and hassle-free option, with all aspects of manufacturing handled by us, ensuring faster production, cost savings and strict quality control.
