Distributors reviewing their Lux 5 range usually find that oem and odm programs explains most of the variance in results between accounts.
Consistency across batches matters more than peak performance for Lux 5, and oem and odm programs is where inconsistency first appears.
Why oem and odm programs matters on the Lux 5
ODM suits buyers with a fixed specification; OEM suits those starting from an existing platform.
Shops that receive a short briefing on oem and odm programs convert noticeably better than shops that only receive stock.
Tooling, artwork and certification lead times should be planned at least a quarter ahead.
