All critical business metrics, including cost, quality and delivery, are directly affected by the performance at the factory.
So, you have invented and designed the next hit product, poised to wreak havoc with the competition and ensure continued financial success for the company for a long time into the future.
Guess what though; the job is not done until the product hits the street. In between design and sales is printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturing and assembly. All critical business metrics, including, cost, quality, and delivery, are directly affected by the performance at the factory.
Today, more than ever, as customer demand patterns become more volatile, performance and productivity is under threat, with rapidly increasing pressure on engineering and materials infrastructures.
This paper discusses the 8 steps that you need to take to ensure PCB assembly success, ensuring the success of the business. To read more, click here.
