Frequently Asked Questions
What is the reason behind the move?
The move is driven by growth. We have outgrown the space of our current facility and decided to build a new facility to support our current and future needs. The new facility contains both office and manufacturing space. It is roughly 2.5x the size of our current facility.
Where are you moving to?
Our current facility is located in Middleton, WI and we are moving to Verona, WI. It is approximately 5 miles between our current and new facility.
Are you going to operate out of both facilities?
This move is a full transition to our new facility. We will not operate out of the old facility once the move is completed.
Does this move impact/change PCB fabrication?
The move only affects the final assembly, integration, and test work that we do. PCB fabrication is done out of house and those facilities are not changing with this move.
Does this move impact/change SMT assembly?
The move only affects the final assembly, integration, and test work that we do. SMT assembly is done out of house and those facilities are not changing with this move.
How does this impact shipments?
All shipments scheduled prior to our move date (planned for September 7, 2018) will occur at our current facility.
After the move, there will be a period where shipments will not occur as we complete the necessary setup, calibration, and quality checks. Once that is complete, we will work with each customer to support and facilitate the necessary audits and/or compliance checks that are required in order to resume shipments to that customer. We will be ready to resume shipments on October 1, 2018.
Will this move impact pricing?
There will be no changes in pricing resulting from this move.
How does this impact development programs?
For the design collaboration effort with our customers, the impact of this move should be little to none as it will occur outside of normal working hours. All contact information and mechanisms will remain the same.
How will RMAs be handled?
All RMAs shipped to X-ES after September 6th, 2018 should be sent to the new facility address of 9901 Silicon Prairie Parkway, Verona, WI 53593. Return dates on RMAs will be communicated once an RMA number is generated.
Who do I contact with questions or concerns?
All questions and concerns should be directed to your current Inside Sales contact or Wes Moreau by filling out the contact form to the right or by phone at (608) 833-1155. We will also regularly update all customers with our move plans and FAQ sheet.
