    Lead Sheet Process

     

     

     

    The pace of material in-sourcing and outsourcing is increasing. With the SOCMA Lead Sheet program, our expert staff will work with you to develop a project lead sheet that will be distributed to our membership network. Our goal is to help build business connections and streamline the project evaluation processes for both manufacturers and customers. SOCMA is uniquely positioned to connect manufacturers and customers through our member network and industry alliances. SOCMA routinely receives inquiries from members and non-members seeking information on member company product development and manufacturing capabilities.

    All project requests will remain confidential until an inquiring company decides to pursue a project or further evaluate a company’s manufacturing capability, at which point SOCMA will provide potential manufacturer contact information to the requesting company for further evaluation and discussion.

    Members and non-members will be able to submit project or lead requests to SOCMA’s network of manufacturers. SOCMA members will receive project or lead requests.
