Greetings,

     I'm 'bench marking' the process of cost analysis for printed circuit
     board assemblies.  I deal exclusively with the manufacturing costs,
     ie. labor and tooling (fixtures) portion of the process, but would
     like information on all aspects.

     Specifically, I'd like information on the following:

     - A brief description of your quotation process.  What functional
       groups are involved?  Who is responsible to do what?  Who supplies
       what information to the process?

     - In the analysis of labor content, what software, if any, is
       utilized?  How is the labor to manufacture the product developed?

     - What is the cycle time of the quotation process?  How much time is
       allotted to complete the quote?  How much time is actually required?

     - Any additional information applicable to the quotation process would
       be greatly appreciated.

     Please feel free to contact me directly.

     Regards,

     Dave Hamilton
