I have been using Advanced Assembly since 2006 for circuit assembly on behalf of Open Source Instruments Inc. and Brandeis University Physics Department. We have had them make thousands of circuits in batches of ten to a hundred. Their work is as good as any I have seen, they provide quotes in twenty-four hours, and they deliver on time. They accept parts in cut tape, tubes, even loose in bags. So the entire process is, for us, far more straightforward than dealing with other assembly houses, where we have to buy reels, provide CAD drawings, and wait a week or two for a quotation. Waiting a week for a quotation on a ten-day turn doesn't make any sense. Furthermore, when we have issues to sort out, such as how to place a particularly delicate part that cracks, or to solder a part for which I have provided a poor footprint, their engineers are honest and informed. Honesty is hard to come by in such endeavors: everyone makes mistakes, but only some companies will admit their mistakes. When working with Advanced Assembly, we admit our mistakes, and they admit theirs, and we get everything figured out efficiently. And we get our boards quickly.
