Attendance 52st ECTC (2002)

Industry Directions• Large OEM’s are divesting themselves of electronics

manufacturing– Electronic Manufacturing Service (EMS) Co’s. are now

predominant assembler of electronics• As manufacturing disappears, so does development

– EMS companies becoming design and development centers for Electronics Manufacturers

– EMS companies are building development staffs, albeit slowly as they become “full service” suppliers (e.g. design, build and field support).

– Margins are thin; much less engineering support than OEMs used to have

• Manufacturing is moving off-shore, and development with it– EMS companies are international, so staff buildup is world-

wide

• EMS are probably the largest single employer of packaging engineers and technologist’s.

• EMS staff are at best minimal participants in the IEEE CPMT.

• We need a program to encourage the EMS’s to participate directly and or support their staff to participate in the IEEE CPMT.

An Outreach Program To the EMS

• Develop Informational for the CTO of the EMS. Develop Direct Contacts with the CTO.

• What are the benefits to an EMS in directly supporting the IEEE CPMT?

• What are the benefits to an EMS supporting their staff joining the IEEE CPMT?

An Outreach Program To the EMS

• Benefits for EMS engineers– Same for OEMs• Professional publications• Recognition & Awards• Reputation – personal and corporate• Professional growth• Insight into what others are doing• Visibility into University activities• Contact with standards bodies

EMS Engineer Benefits

EMS Benefits

• Benefits for EMS company– Industry insight into technical

competence– Build reputation through Staff

publications– Visibility to customers and potential

customers– Understanding of competition–Work with standards bodies
