Case Study: Delivering Excellence for Generation Amazing – Qatar
Client: Generation Amazing, Qatar Project: Production of 100 Aluminum Alloy Football Trophies
The Initial Challenge: Quality & Design Flaws
MC ART Awards foi encomendado por Geração incrível Catar, para produzir 100 Troféus de futebol de liga de alumínio com bases de madeira. Nosso cliente já havia encomendado um lote desses troféus de outro fornecedor em 2024, mas encontrou problemas de qualidade significativos.
O design original, composto por três componentes separados, foi montado usando um método que se baseava em apenas três parafusos. Essa abordagem, Provavelmente escolhido pelo fornecedor anterior por sua simplicidade e custo-efetividade sobre um design de parafuso integrado mais desafiador, unfortunately led to instability and deformation of the trophy. Furthermore, each trophy weighed a substantial 800 grams, exceeding the client’s desired weight.
Generation Amazing tasked MC ART AWARDS with a multi-faceted challenge: to re-engineer the trophy for integrated stability, reduce the weight by 250 grams per unit, and maintain a per-unit cost under $50 USD, all while preserving the original aesthetic design and dimensions.
Our Innovative Solution: Engineering for Excellence
Upon receiving this request, Evan, our Product Manager at MC ART AWARDS, collaborated closely with our product design department. Their mandate was clear: develop a new assembly solution that would achieve integrated fixation and a significant weight reduction without altering the trophy’s external appearance or dimensions.
Through dedicated coordination and innovative problem-solving between our design and production teams, a successful manufacturing plan was devised. We not only met but exceeded the client’s expectations, Produzindo tudo 100 troféus com as especificações necessárias. Todo o processo, Da conceitualização inicial do design até a ordem do cliente e a produção final, foi concluído em um impressionante período de 15 dias.
Superando obstáculos da cadeia de suprimentos: Um compromisso com a integridade
O projeto apresentou uma camada adicional de complexidade quando o cliente solicitou embalagem personalizada. As caixas de embalagem exigiam um crachá de logotipo de metal, um tabuleiro de fibra de alta densidade (Mdf) núcleo embrulhado em couro preto, and an EVA foam insert for secure trophy placement. As MC ART AWARDS does not specialize in packaging production, we sought an external partner.
Unfortunately, our initial packaging supplier failed to meet the agreed-upon 15-day deadline. More critically, they unilaterally deviated from the specifications, using cardboard instead of MDF and leather, and employing hot stamping instead of a metal logo badge. This resulted in packaging that was entirely unsuitable and unacceptable.
Recognizing our commitment to a 25-day total delivery promise to Generation Amazing, we immediately sought an alternative. We swiftly engaged a nearby packaging factory, offering double the standard price to expedite production within a strict five-day window. To ensure quality and adherence to specifications, we assigned a dedicated team member to supervise the production process on-site.
This proactive intervention allowed us to successfully complete the packaging and prepare the trophies for shipment from Shenzhen Port to the client’s office in Doha, Qatar, within the stipulated timeframe. While this unforeseen setback resulted in a $1,000 USD loss on the order, we firmly believe that upholding our commitment to the client was paramount. This experience reinforced our core belief that integrity and reliability are the cornerstones of long-term success.
