Harwin has appointed Mark Herbert as Corporate Manager for Electronic Manufacturing Service Providers. The aim of the new role will be to develop new EMS business, increasing the service levels that customers can expect to receive.
Herbert explains: "In my new role I will be visiting EMS companies directly to develop a closer relationship with them and to introduce products that are appropriate for their application. I believe that our EZ Boardware range of products is especially suitable for EMS companies looking to decrease the cost of manufacturing. My role will be to identify the design authority - which may be the OEM or third-party manufacturer - then get Harwin products designed-in and on the BOM. This model is a win-win-win situation, as end customers get better product, EMS companies benefit from improved communication and service levels, and Harwin gets designed into new projects."
The EZ Boardware product family includes space- and cost-saving surface-mount products for EMC, cable management, battery attachment, test and rework. For more information go to www.harwin.com/ez-boardware.
