The RISK module has been designed to help control risks related to electronic components’ obsolescence and ensure compliance with mandatory standards (RoHS, REACH, AEC …).
Lifecycle and obsolescence

“MILLIONS OF ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS”
Genius! This solution neatly bundles two major information sources into a readily usable format. At your fingertips, not only will you know market price but now you’ll know obsolete and available alternatives. Let’s not forget hazardous substance specification like RoHS and REACH compliance!”

YOUR CHALLENGES
RISKS MANAGEMENT
Have a synthetic vision of obsolescence, REACH compliance of all the components of a product. Obtain «Conflict Mineral» certificates from manufacturers, or check automotive certifications (AECs) to meet customers’ expectations.
ADDING VALUE
Take into account the risks upstream and in a systematic way, to avoid design iterations. For EMS, in the early stages of BOM costing, evaluate a BOM status to bring value to customers and make a difference.
IDENTIFY CROSS-REFERENCES
Identify alternative sources for components, quickly determine cost effectiveness, inventory’s availability, create and send relevant RFQs.
