OEM and ODM programs let a distributor turn Meta Ultra into a house brand rather than a commodity line.
Distributors reviewing their Meta Ultra range usually find that oem and odm programs explains most of the variance in results between accounts.
Documentation is not paperwork for its own sake; on oem and odm programs it is the difference between a clean clearance and a delayed one.

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.
