RoHS-International Sells Initial Australian License of RoHS-Compliance Database with IPC1752 Functionality
Release 28/March/07
As a recent reseller for the GoodBye Chain Group’s award-winning Material Declaration Wizard (MDW) database with full XML 1752 functionality, RoHS-International Ltd is pleased to announce its initial sale in the Australia and New Zealand Region. Last month, MDW won the coveted Vision Award from SMT Magazine.
Geared towards the financial and human resource constraints faced by many SMEs, MDW is very affordable, easily installed and highly-functional. As an example, MDW takes RoHS compliance data, in either a yes/no format or full material disclosure, and aggregates it up to product level. It allows companies to easily cleanse the data and perform analytics. And it provides a wide variety of reports for senior management, customers and governments, including China RoHS Information Disclosure Tables and IPC 1752 reports that can be published once on corporate websites, thereby reducing workload, staff time and operational costs.
Additionally, companies wanting to accelerate their RoHS compliance can import data from third-party providers like PartMiner. And companies wanting to prepare for the EU’s Registration, Evaluation and Authorization of Chemicals (REACH) and other toxicity-oriented Directives can build their own substance and materials library.
MDW has been created specifically for SMEs and has the same, if not better, functionality than the ERP bolt-on compliance software that is available for the larger ERP systems. However it markets at less than 10% of the price of these alternatives.
“The optimum value of MDW is in the full material disclosure,” says Roland Sommer MD of RoHS-International. “If the information is databased correctly, when the next substance is banned…or the limit values are changed…or exemptions expire…then the database will tell you which of your components are affected. The alternative is re-sourcing all yes/no declarations - something that companies are just realizing may be necessary for China RoHS”.
