ODM Solution
Are you looking to bring a new product to market but lack the in-house resources or expertise? Our Original Design Manufacturing (ODM) services are here to tackle your problem!
What is ODM Solution
An Original Design Manufacturer (ODM) is a team that designs a product for a company, and then manufactures the design for the company to sell. In many cases the ODM has an existing design, and the company requests subtle modifications to the existing design to meet the company’s product requirements.
The ODM approach provides a comprehensive solution for companies looking to introduce new products without the need for extensive investment in design and manufacturing. By partnering with Arira, companies can leverage specialized expertise, reduce costs, accelerate time-to-market, and focus on their core competencies while ensuring high-quality product development and manufacturing.
ODM vs Design Solutions
At Arira, we offer two paths for bringing your electronic product visions to life: our regular design solutions and our ODM solution. Choosing between a regular design solution and an ODM solution depends on your project's scope, timeline, and budget.

Our ODM Partners
Jeff Hansell
As a high-tech team focused on system software, we don't have resources to design and manage the build of our custom hardware needs. Arira has consistently filled this need for our networking devices utilizing high speed FPGAs and fiber optic interfaces.
Chris Cole
Arira handled the end to end design, testing, and certification of our custom hardware, plus firmware qual and debugging, so we could focus on the software and systems further up the stack. As a major tech company, we could have developed our own hardware and ramped up our own CMs, but we have enough projects that are over budget and behind schedule already, so being able to count on Arira to bring this new product to life for us was a huge win!
