TECH PACKS
A CRUCIAL GUIDE FOR ALL MANUFACTURING AND SAMPLE CHECKING
Our TECH PACK is a detail product specification document we share with our factories from the initial sampling stage to final production. Every stage is carefully checked, revised and documented by Xcel Bespoke design team with full development traceability on record. This effective process ensures quality and accuracy during production and it reduces potential errors to a minimum. More importantly, our TECH PACKS safeguards punctuality of every delivery without incurring overtime and unexpected costs.
TECHNOLOGY & INNOVATION
We have a vast amount of experience in the design and development of online client platforms. We are currently servicing over 48,000 users, via 1700 sites across the UK, Europe and ROW. Innovative and automatic partnerships are crucial for time to market, fast turnaround demand.
All platforms perform with up to the minute real-time information, where reports can be accessed through both client and our bespoke portals. This approach gives clear visibility through different countries and time zones. Orders then can be processed quickly, stock management can be assessed, evaluated on a global scale.
