Electronics & Industrial Equipment manufacturing companies are concerned with several key business areas, including standardization, configuration, communication, manufacturing throughput, obsolescence, and supply chain management. These areas are especially prevalent with manufacturers of printed circuit boards (PCBs). An electronics manufacturer's ability to execute within these areas often determines both their profitability and long-term viability in an increasingly competitive business environment.

Electronics manufacturing companies are acutely focused on strict standardization of all business, engineering and manufacturing processes. These companies strive to maximize efficiency, both internally and externally within their supply chains. Internally, electronics manufacturers strive to standardize their customer, supplier and manufacturing cycles. Externally, electronics manufacturers are demanding better visibility into transactions and a better understanding of customer and supplier relationships. Business process standardization helps them achieve this end.

Thirdware works with Electronics and Industrial companies to overcome these challenges through a systematic systems approach.
