Production Tracker
· Production progress and remaining work for the Lumimed pilot and planned builds.
Production Summary
The next step is a 30-unit pilot to check housing fit, assembly and packaging before building the balance. Eastek has confirmed material for the pilot; the revised orders and final build documents are needed to schedule it.
- 30 pilot units for internal testing only, not for sale.
- 470 units requested for October; 500 for January. Delivery dates remain unconfirmed.
- Quantity and pricing review complete. Replacement order paperwork is still being finalized.
Key Production Components
1. Orders & Schedule
The first 1,000 units retain the earlier price of about $118 each. Later orders follow the updated quote and selected annual volume.
Decisions / Next Steps
- Finalize the two Rev A orders, including deposit credits and payment terms, then confirm the pilot and balance delivery dates. (Avery)
- Confirm purchasing status and obtain the updated parts and lead-time list.
- Reconcile contacts held by SmartShape or already shipped before ordering replacements.
2. Housing & Quality
The pilot will check fit and defects in the existing housings before production proceeds with the balance.
Decisions / Next Steps
- Review pilot results and decide whether future housings need tooling, snap-fit or adhesive changes. (Mark Cartellone)
- Document fit acceptance criteria and the pilot defect count. Verify the sharp-edge tool correction and affected lots.
- Confirm assembly and work instructions before building the balance.
- Confirm the product-specific SGS audit alongside the first production build.
3. Packaging & Markings
Updated Direction A artwork is prepared.
Decisions / Next Steps
- Finalize the imagery and printer proof. (Adam)
- Check box opening and the white corrugated insert during the pilot.
- Finish manual formatting, labels, serial numbers and date-code markings before build approval.
4. Regulatory & Battery
Done: keep the current battery and its higher minimum order quantity.
The FDA pre-submission filing has not yet been verified.
Decisions / Next Steps
- Confirm the FDA pre-submission filing and receipt. (Avery)
- Keep the pilot for internal evaluation. Commercial release remains subject to regulatory clearance.
