What is the Difference Between OEM, OBM and ODM? OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) manufactures the components or the products that will be bought by a company and then sold under the purchaserâs brand name. OEM is in production, but it can also be found in service such as quality control and delivery. OEM has a responsibility to produce the product they are assigned to make. The products have to meet the needs of the customers. OBM (Original Brand Manufacturer) is a company that retails their own branded products that are either the entire products or component parts produced by a second company.
OEM sometimes means the company that sells the component to the the VAR, and other times it refers to the VAR who is acquiring a product from an OEM. The reason for this is that OEM (the abbreviation) is sometimes used as a verb instead of a noun.
