Placing a turn-key order is not that different from a kitted order. The key difference is that you will not see a materials quote right away. You first place the order, then we will call you about the pcb and components details. In about a day, we will return the full quote and you can decide to proceed or not.
- Create a Labor Quote: Tell us the details of your PCB and obtain a price quote. After "Generating" the quote, choose quantity and turn time. Then select "Order".
- "Place" your Order: For a turn-key order, these details will be used to complete your quote. Give a project name and timeline. In the "Box Details" section, enter "Turn-Key"
In the "Special Instructions", note that this is for a turn-key quote.
- Payment Method: You can select "Other" or give us your credit card information (Visa, Mastercard, or AmEx) so we will have it on file. We will not charge it unless you authorize us to proceed
- File Upload: The last step of the online order process. On this page you can upload your files (in a single .zip file, please).
- Call us: To complete your turn-key quote, we need to speak with you first. The online quote will only show labor costs. We will quote the materials manually.

Turn-Key Service Features
Our expanded Turn-Key proto pcb assembly service is composed of two options:
- Full Turn-Key: We will handle the entire process—including ordering all parts (circuit board and components), online order tracking and management, assembly, quality inspection and final shipment.
- Partial Turn-Key: You can order the circuit board or components and Screaming Circuits® will order the remaining parts, then handle order tracking and management, assembly, quality inspection and final shipment.
Turn-Key service is available in addition to our standard proto assembly service; which includes machine placed SMT assembly, leadless QFN and BGA assembly, fine-pitch component assembly and thru hole assembly.
We follow the same component kit requirements for proto assembly on Turn-Key jobs. The component requirements are 5 extra parts (or 5% minimum extra) for all discrete parts and minimal extra parts on all other materials so that there are no shortages.
We place parts from cut strips eliminating the need to purchase reels and reducing the cost of additional inventory. Even though we are not buying reels, you will still have machine-placed quality components.
We order only high-quality electrical-tested raw pc boards for your Turn-Key order
Note: There is a $500 minimum order on materials for a Turn-Key order.
We Order Only the Parts You Specify
Screaming Circuits guarantees quality service on Turn-Key orders. Screaming Circuits does not stock components. We will buy the exact parts that you specify. This parts procurement policy will prevent:
- unauthorized part substitutions
- inappropriate part crosses
- added expenses for wasted time and materials
- ordering parts that can’t be used if their life span expires
If a part is not available, experienced Screaming Circuits staff will research possible crosses or substitution parts and then contact you with a list of questions and possible options before placing orders. We have dedicated purchasing staff available to answer questions and communicate about the status of the Turn-Key order.
Note: The procurement time is in addition to the lead time. Turn around on the order does not start until parts have been ordered and received by us. On a standard order, average order lead time is 7 – 10 days before assembly can start.
You must pay for all materials up front before Screaming Circuits can proceed with an order. For Turn-Key orders, see terms and conditions for more details.
