Jack...
I don't totally agree with your statement " What choice is there?
Unless I go to purchasing and demand to know production vendors in
advance! Yeah, everyone jumps when designers request things, right?"
That is JUST what you do, if you can prove your point with facts to
higher management or the Quality Dept. We have experienced some of the
problems that you mentions because a certain % of orders MUST go to
certain shops, but we have been able to give the simpler designs to them
and the tougher builds to those that are capable. In fact, when we go out
to qualify a fab house, the survey group consists of Purchasing, Quality
AND MECHANICAL DESIGN. Don't give in to the Bean Counters..fight back
with facts and if that doesn't work, kill them ( obviiously that last part
is a joke, so save you flames)....
