RoHS/WEEE Supply Chain Transition Workshop

"Symphony Consulting, Inc., a supply chain consulting and training company located in Silicon Valley, announced the launch of a new one-day workshop that helps Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) take concrete steps towards mitigating revenue and inventory risks associated with the European Union’s RoHS/WEEE directives. Although most companies have already begun to address technical compliance issues associated with these two directives, industry experts believe that spot shortages in components and capacity throughout the electronics supply chain will lead to a revenue shortfall for many OEMs. Even companies that are exempt from this regulation will be affected as their supply base goes through the RoHS transformation."
