Sales cycle
Our sales process is generally a technical sale, between XP Power sales engineer and customer design engineer. Our customers are typically experts in their field, whether it is a drug delivery device, a piece of complex factory control machinery or a high-end communications device operating in a harsh environment. They will approach a company such as ours to recommend and assist them to design a power converter into their end system to allow it to function.
Generally, with larger customers it is not possible to engage on a specific opportunity until we are on an approved or preferred vendor list. This will involve qualification by the customer's technical, quality and purchasing teams and may often involve a physical audit of our quality systems and a factory audit.
