Astute Electronics are delivering a seminar at this year’s DSEI on an important subject: counterfeit electronics detection and risk mitigation. Astute has recently played a leading role in defining and updating the Ministry of Defence’s Defence Standard 05-135, accompanied by the Counterfeit Avoidance Maturity Model, that defines how a supplier is managing the risk of counterfeit components entering the MoD’s supply chain. Astute is uniquely placed to share their valuable experiences in the context of heightened electronics supply-chain pressure, and they invite you to attend an expert seminar at 2.30PM, 13 September, Global Theatre.
