OEM is a term that predates the computer/electronics industry. It refers to the "original equipment manufacturer" of a subassembly used in a manufacture of a larger item (e.g., Delphi is the OEM of the climate control system for the Fusion vehicle manufactured by Ford) The term OEM (original equipment manufacturer) was coined in the 1950s by IBM. It designated a customer that purchased IBM computers and resold them as part of a larger product. The first OEMs sold oil refineries. == Contradictory uses in manufacturing == SSWR When a company purchases products or components from another company and resells the products or components with the purchasing company's name or logo on them (usually, but not always as part of a product), the company that resells the product is called the OEM, as in these examples and sources.[1][2][3] For example, when IBM purchased Tandon floppy drives for IBM's original PC, IBM sold the floppy drive to the end user via sales of IBM's PC, and IBM was called the OEM in relation to the Tandon floppy drive. However, in another common usage, Tandon would be called the OEM in this example, as in these examples.[4][5] According to Search Data Center, the former meaning (the reseller is the OEM) is the modern meaning, and the latter meaning (the manufacturer is the OEM) is a holdover from an older usage.[6]. The full extent of the confusion can be seen by browsing the contradictory definitions pulled up by Audit My PC from the results of various search engines.[7] In the above example also, the Tandon Floppy drive would be called an OEM product.[8]. In the verb form, it would be said that IBM OEM'ed the Tandon floppy drives. There is a growing market for the sales of OEM products directly to end users via online auction sites and such. An OEM product will differ from its retail version in price, the extent of the warranty, parts, instructions, and sometimes even functionality. OEM hardware can be purchased by end users at considerable savings of 30% or more. For example, OEM hard drives are purchased in a simple plastic bag without the additional cables or bulky box found in the more expensive retail package. |
