web2.0_banner_1000x728px

Portwell, driven by its five core services—Consulting, Design, Products, Manufacturing, and Logistics—comprehensively builds the core for enterprise digital transformation and smart manufacturing. Through its consulting teams and professional support, Portwell accelerates product development and implementation processes. Simultaneously, by leveraging modular design, self-developed manufacturing inspection tools iCheck/iBOM, and remote management platforms RPET and NODE.X, the company ensures efficiency and quality from R&D through to mass production. Its smart factories combine AI inspection, intelligent warehousing, and dashboard systems, comply with ISO standards, and offer both flexibility and efficiency. Finally, a comprehensive logistics network reduces Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and shortens response times, delivering a scalable and cost-effective global supply chain.

Under the joint investment of Posiflex (TWSE: 8114) and ASUS (TWSE: 2357), Portwell can fully leverage the advantageous resources of both parties. ASUS’s sub-brand, ASUS IoT, possesses excellent AI edge computing technology and industrial-grade product innovation capabilities, collaborates extensively with AIoT ecosystem partners, and helps customers accelerate product development and time-to-market. The Posiflex Group is a global leader in Commercial AIoT, with deep accumulated experience in Online-to-Offline (O2O) Solutions and Scenario-defined Embedded Appliance Solutions. Through the ASUS Group’s broad partner collaboration capabilities and the Posiflex Group’s comprehensive remote monitoring and field operational services, Portwell can flexibly respond to diverse customer needs in the competitive global supply chain and vertical markets, helping customers build more comprehensive and sustained competitive advantages.
