Key Note's fourth Market Assessment report on Men & Women's Buying Habits shows fundamental shifts in the traditional balance of economic power between men and women. The impacts of both prolonged prosperity and the rise in the number of women entering the workplace have brought male dominance of big ticket consumer spending to a new tipping point. Similarly, the growth in Internet re
When the EU-RoHS Directive (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) took effect in July 2006 the rollout was time consuming, but smooth. It currently appears that most manufacturers are compliant and all old stock has been removed. However, little, if any, attention has been paid to the ‘China RoHS’, “Law of the People’s Republic of China for the Promotion of Clean Production” and the “Law of the People’s Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Environmental Pollution by Solid Wastes” and other related statutes. While there is crossover between the EU-RoHS Directive and the ‘China RoHS’ Laws they are not identical. Most importantly they require different labeling.
The current practice of most Manufacturers is to provide a letter to its Distributor claiming that products are compliant with China-RoHS. Most Manufacturers refuse to label the product according to the China directives. In these cases, the responsibility is passed on to the Distribution Channel to choose whether they want to be held accountable for marking the product on behalf of the supplier OEM and subsequently take the responsibility for the compliance of the product. Ultimately, it would seem that whoever marks the product would be the one taking responsibility for the compliance of the product.
In a recently issued whitepaper by Symphony Consulting, “Transition to RoHS: The Seven Common Pitfalls to Avoid”, the implication is that if a Distributor supplies the product and certifies it as compliant and it is later determined that it contains a banned chemical, the manufacturer whose logo appears on the product could be banned from that country. This could also include severe fines if the non-compliance event is due to negligence and/or willful misconduct.

Many years ago when I hated what I was doing for a living I was encouraged by my career coach to write down several short stories about times and events in my life where I influenced the outcome. I was stumped at first, but after a few days, I came up with over 15 pages of stories of times in my life where I influenced the outcome and either grew myself and/or bettered the existe

Meetings held and organised by Pharmaceutical companies are an essential way of communicating and evolving scientific research, clinical development and medical education. However, there is always the danger that they can be seen as a blatant attempt to railroad Health Care Professionals into prescribing products by using lavish surroundings and hospitality to influence them.Th

It is now common thing when large corporation selects mid-market ERP or so-called standard functionality MRP solution as its corporate accounting system. Microsoft Business Solutions Great Plains is very good candidate. As all MBS ERPs it has MS SQL Server 2000/2005 database platform and allows you to deploy customizable and altered solution, serving large corporation HR department.
These implications travel up and down the supply chain for the Distribution Channel. If we certify compliance based on a letter from the supplier OEM and label the product and if it’s found to be non-compliant, then our contracted relationship could be damaged with our supplier OEM. If we provide to our OEM customer a component product that is certified with a letter and marked by the Distributor but found to not be compliant, the implication is severe for the OEM customer.
The situation is precarious. Why was the EU-RoHS Directive carried out swiftly and effectively and the ‘China RoHS’ all but ignored? It will be interesting to see how the compliance is handled in the future for ‘China RoHS’ as demand increases.
