Linear Formalizes New OEM/ODM Development Unit

December 19, 2011

Linear LLC announced the formation of its new Business Development Group, which will support a growing number of new markets and existing customers interested in customized product solutions ranging from individual components to private labeling (OEM), and new product design and development (ODM).

“We’re making this group official,” said Todd Hokunson, vice president of the Business Development Group. “Linear has informally provided OEM services for many years, but with a growing volume in requests from customers and the changing market landscape, Linear decided to leverage and formalize these service offerings for new markets.”

The Business Development Group offers fully integrated design, engineering and manufacturing processes, and will focus on serving large, national systems integrators. Organizations that have developed their own intellectual property, but do not have the resources to act on it, now have a dedicated resource to get their ideas to market.

Linear’s OEM and ODM services are available in a wide variety of electronic product categories including radio frequency (RF), PERS, security solutions, access control, CCTV, audio-video, digital electronics and electrical/mechanical solutions and garage door operators.

To learn more, contact Todd Hokunson at (760) 438-7114.
