Following the success of our previous obsolescence roundtable, the Force Technologies team returns to answer more real-world questions from engineers, procurement specialists and manufacturers.

In Episode 22, we discuss:

  • Should you make a lifetime buy when components become obsolete?
  • How procurement teams can become involved earlier in obsolescence planning
  • When a redesign is necessary and when alternative solutions may be better
  • Managing traceability for hard-to-find and end-of-life components
  • The importance of documentation retention and quality processes
  • Long-term storage strategies for critical electronic components


Join Karen, Charlotte, Ben and Eder as they share practical insights into managing obsolescence, reducing supply chain risk and maintaining product availability throughout the lifecycle of your equipment.
