Box Build vs. Electromechanical Assembly

Build-to-Print vs. Contract Manufacturing
General Assembly & Manufacturing Corp. builds custom cable and wire harness assemblies and integrates them into electromechanical builds — from discrete harnesses to fully wired box builds — then inspects and functionally tests in-house before the unit ships.
A harness is only finished when it works in the product. GAMC builds cable and wire harness assemblies to your drawings and integrates them directly into the electromechanical build — routed, terminated, and tested — so you receive a working, wired unit instead of loose harnesses to install elsewhere.
What We Build & Integrate
- Custom wire harnesses and cable assemblies to your prints
- Panel, enclosure, and chassis wiring
- Connectorization and termination to spec
- Harness integration into box builds and finished assemblies
- Inspection and functional test before ship
From Harness to Finished Unit
Because GAMC fabricates harnesses and assembles the product under one roof, the wiring is built for the unit it goes into with correct lengths, routing, and terminations, and is verified in place. The single-source path removes a vendor handoff, protects the schedule, and keeps the spec intact from drawing to delivery.
This work sits alongside GAMC’s wire harness and control panel manufacturing and its broader electromechanical contract manufacturing capability. Finished assemblies go through electromechanical assembly testing and validation before they ship.
At a Glance
- Scope: custom harnesses, cable assemblies, panel and enclosure wiring, connectorization.
- Integration: harnesses built into box builds and finished assemblies.
- Verification: in-house inspection and functional test.
- Best fit: low-to-medium-volume electromechanical programs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does GAMC build custom wire harnesses?
Yes. GAMC fabricates custom cable and wire harness assemblies to your drawings and integrates them into the electromechanical build.
Will the harness be installed in my unit?
Yes. GAMC routes, terminates, and integrates harnesses into box builds and finished assemblies.
Do you test the wiring?
Yes. Assemblies are inspected and functionally tested in-house before the unit ships, using custom test fixtures designed in-house where a build calls for it.
What do you need to quote a harness?
Your harness drawings, wire list or bill of materials, connector details, and quantities.
Can you handle low-volume harness work?
Yes. GAMC is built for low-to-medium-volume electromechanical programs, including the harnesses that go into them.
