Factory capability
relationship reviews and monitoring

OPIE Man­u­fac­ture Hub helps Aus­tralian busi­ness­es source, procure and co­or­di­nate man­u­fac­tured products with greater con­fi­dence. We connect product ideas, supplier networks, man­u­fac­tur­ing knowledge and pro­cure­ment support into one practical pathway, helping customers move from supplier search to samples, pricing, pro­duc­tion and delivery planning.

Built on the real man­u­fac­tur­ing ex­pe­ri­ence of OPIE Man­u­fac­tur­ing Group, OPIE Hub is more than a product sourcing service. We un­der­stand how products are made, quoted, packed, shipped and supplied, which means we can help assess suppliers from a practical pro­duc­tion point of view
Materials Sourcing

Source the right materials for the job, from metals and hardware to textiles, plastics, finishes and packaging. OPIE Hub helps match materials to per­for­mance, price, avail­abil­i­ty and man­u­fac­tur­ing metho

Supplier Sourcing

Support clearer com­mu­ni­ca­tion between customers and suppliers, helping turn product ideas, drawings, spec­i­fi­ca­tions and changes into practical man­u­fac­tur­ing in­struc­tions

Quality Planning

Quality Planning

Plan quality ex­pec­ta­tions early, including materials, finishes, tol­er­ances, sample checks, pro­duc­tion approvals, packaging re­quire­ments and repeat order con­sis­ten­cy.

Smarter Sourcing for Man­u­fac­tured Products

Finding a supplier is easy. Finding the right supplier is harder. Effective sourcing and pro­cure­ment requires more than a price com­par­i­son. It involves un­der­stand­ing product spec­i­fi­ca­tions, materials, finishes, minimum order quan­ti­ties, tooling, lead times, quality ex­pec­ta­tions, packaging, freight and supplier re­li­a­bil­i­ty. OPIE Hub builds on long-term trusted supplier re­la­tion­ships developed over more than 20 years of product de­vel­op­ment, man­u­fac­tur­ing, importing and pro­cure­ment ex­pe­ri­ence. This gives customers access to a more reliable sourcing pathway, supported by practical man­u­fac­tur­ing knowledge and es­tab­lished in­ter­na­tion­al supply networks.
