Wiper Motor for An e-commerce seller in the Middle East
An e-commerce seller came to us with a wiper motor programme for the Middle East. The brief was ordinary and unforgiving at the same time: a fixed launch window, a landed cost that had to survive freight and duty, and a part that had to match an existing sample. This case records what was specified, what went wrong in sampling and how the bulk order landed.
The starting point
- A fitment that looked right on paper and failed on the bench
- Warranty claims traced back to a single lot
- A supplier who changed material without saying so

What was specified
| Part | Wiper Motor |
|---|---|
| Client | An e-commerce seller |
| Market | the Middle East |
| Volume | 10,000 pieces across 6 specifications |
| Base material | Forged Aluminium |
| Sampling rounds | 2 |
| Delivery window | 4 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
| Compliance | ISO 9001 |
How it was resolved
- The specification was rebuilt around Forged Aluminium and the tolerance locked before bulk.
- A pre-production sample was approved and kept as the golden reference.
- Production ran with in-line inspection and a mid-run photo report.
- Cartons were packed to the client's own barcode and ratio specification.
- Documentation shipped with the goods instead of after them.

Result
- 10,000 pieces delivered inside the 4-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the original quotation.
- Inspection-related rejection stayed under 1.0%.
- The specification is on file, so reorders reproduce the approved sample.
What we would repeat
Approve a pre-production sample made from the actual bulk material. Substitute material behaves differently in service.
