OEM Building Automation Power Relay Manufacturer Solutions
Building automation systems (BAS) are becoming more powerful, more connected, and more complex. At the same time, OEMs face increasing pressure to control costs, reduce supply chain risk, and deliver reliable products at scale.
For many manufacturers, producing power relays in-house is no longer a strategic advantage. Tooling costs rise, certifications multiply, and engineering resources are pulled away from core product innovation.
That reality is why more OEMs are turning to experienced OEM building automation power relay manufacturers like Functional Devices—not just as a supplier, but as a long-term partner. Functional Devices supports OEMs with custom and white-label relay solutions designed specifically for building automation applications. Learn more about our OEM solutions.
Why OEMs Struggle to Manufacture Power Relays In-House
Power relays may appear straightforward, but manufacturing them at scale introduces hidden complexity.
Building automation power relay OEMs often face these challenges:
- High capital investment for tooling, testing equipment, and production lines
- Engineering time diverted from core intellectual property and system design
- Ongoing certification, quality assurance, and compliance requirements
- Difficulty scaling production without disrupting existing operations
As BAS platforms evolve, the cost of maintaining internal relay manufacturing for OEMs increases while the strategic value often decreases. Outsourcing manufacturing while retaining your brand becomes less about compromise and more about focus and practicality.
