The McLaren Engineering is a state of the art facility that houses an Advanced Gear Lab, Rapid Rapid Prototyping Teardown Warranty & Analysis Prototype Manufacturing Cell, & Production Scale Manufacturing Simulation Cell. McLaren's capabilities offer a full complement of services that can take any one of these 3 forms: . Fully owned product with black box design responsibilities . Collaborative grey box design, development, prototyping and testing . Contract testing, prototyping, build and fabrication services © Linamar Corporation 7 GENSETS – Technology Readiness . Technology . How developed is the technology? . TRL level . Finalized BOM – Everything is based around the BOM . What prototypes are available to test? . Testing – what has been done / would be useful to use our testing facility . DFM / DFA – Design for Manufacture / Design for Assembly . What can be modified to make the product easier to manufacture / lower cost . Internal manufacturing engineering can and will assist in all manufacturing opportunities . Need to understand form and function and reasoning for current form / function for best DFM/DFA results . Materials, joining, off-the-shelf alternatives, existing / known / alternative manufacturing technologies . Do we need to bring in another CM with a specific skill-set to make a component? © Linamar Corporation 8 GENSETS – Transaction . What does CM want? . Global Supply / Manufacturing Exclusivity . Expected profit from manufacturing . Target for CM is revenue growth, need new products to achieve growth . What does CM offer? . Capitalizing (paying for) scaling of manufacturing* . *some tooling costs are expected to be covered by Customer or Customer’s Customer . Covering majority of working capital . Typically this means the large round manufacturing round investment is not required . Some type of competitiveness clause on pricing . Open Book, Pre-arrange profit, independent verification, rationality limitations, first right of refusal © Linamar Corporation 9 GENSETS – Market . Market . What is the value proposition to the market? . Verified by actual customers . Support business development to find and confirm market . Utilities . Fleets . Large scale users . Where will the future volumes be? (only way to get costs down) © Linamar Corporation 10 GENSETS – Market – 1kW Generator . Markets . All markets are price sensitive . Biggest thing to attack, but working with a CM can help to reduce cost or provide a good idea of what future price can be . Simplicity and materials choices . Typically: . In Automotive / Retail – the initial price is primary driver . In Power – the cost of power (efficiency) is primary driver . Fuel Type Organizations . Most of these can be natural gas powered . Utilities and Energy companies want to sell more gas and have trade groups and innovation funds . Transportation . Military / Aerospace – Weight and Efficiency – this is where can make the higher cost product . Automotive – Cost (size, weight, everything) . Heavy Duty – Cost © Linamar Corporation 11 GENSETS – Market – 1kW Generator . Remote Power Generation . Remote Oil and Gas –Not as sensitive to efficiency (fuel is there) or cleanliness - Not as sensitive to cost if around the price of alternatives – goal of low maintenance . Industrial Remote – telecom tower backup – low maintenance required – clean burning very important - priced less or competitive with alternatives . Private / civilian – very cost sensitive, maintenance must be easy . Military use – weight / size sensitive, efficiency sensitive, minimal cost sensitivity © Linamar Corporation 12 GENSETS – Market – 1kW Generator . Any customer interaction is good and should be fostered regardless of market . Even if you don’t hit that customers targets for any specific metric . It is mostly about how you network, who you know, who you get in front of, that determines if the technology will be accepted . How much better will your change be than baseline or alternative technologies? If only a few percent better, don’t do that and target cost or reliability instead . Make sure it works © Linamar Corporation 13 GENSETS – Payment . How is this going to be paid? . Customer orders for early prototypes? . Private equity / venture funding? . CM to provide funding through note (non-dilutive) or equity investment? . Development on the CM’s dime requires significant market pull and disruption © Linamar Corporation 14 GENSETS – Company & Future . What is the expectation for the company? . Stay as independent entity and create a business? . Sell off IP and move on? . Be acquired / folded into larger company? . Who is developing and identifying the customers? . Who are you? . Why are you doing this? . How are you to work with? . Honesty in all phases of process is very important . Irritable founders do not last long © Linamar Corporation 15 GENSETS – Manufacturing . Manufacture . BOM cost at volume on input . Completed cost at volume . Final price . 20% Return on Amortized Invested Capital / Internal Rate of Return . Inputs (from outside Suppliers) . Burden (cost of facility (sqft & utilities), people to run/inspect/maintain/manage line) . All outside inputs competitively quoted . Multiple suppliers of machining / assembly line surveyed and quoted © Linamar Corporation 16 GENSETS – Manufacturing . Cost estimations . Typical high volume automotive costs are a function of: . Raw Material Cost (Biggest contributor typically) . Processing of that material . Pre-processing – Casting, Forging, Billet, Sheet . Cost determined by operation, Priced per lb typically . Machining / Fabrication . Cost determined by time, machine capital depreciation, and wear / use items . Assembling materials . Cost determined by time, machine capital depreciation . Testing assembly . Cost determined by time, machine capital depreciation, additional testing inputs . Inspection . Anywhere during process where inspection required add costs of some kind © Linamar Corporation 17 GENSETS – Process . Everything looks good – how do we proceed? . LOI – letter of intent . Formal Definitive Agreement . BOM Review . Determine manufacturing group / groups . DFM/DFA . Prototypes . Validation . Prototypes (Attempt to get customers to be purchasers / users of early phase prototypes) . Validation (repeat until pass) .
