We are a very small EMS that has been sued by a large OEM customer. We built a board, it passed the customer supplied tester, but we had accidentally put a wrong part on it. This was discovered years after we had been placing this part. The cust

A few questions: How did you put the wrong part on for so many years and not catch it? Was this due to an error in the customer supplied data like an incorrect BoM or an internal error such as a P&P machine programming error? How wrong was the wron

This is what pisses me off in this industry today. It seems the operators are in charge of the whole process. Management and supervisors are too afraid of lawsuits to lay down the rules and enforce them. If your procedure states and I am sure ever
