RBB is moving, so we know you may have some questions. In order to help answer those, below is some information which we believe will set your mind at ease.
RBB’s whitepaper on how small batch electronics affects the OEM-CM relationship
Very often OEM’s struggle to effectively manage large portfolios of small batches of custom electronic assemblies. That’s why I tackled the topic in the Whitepaper, “Market Dynamics facing OEM’s with Large Portfolios of Ongoing Small Batches.”
I recently gave a short talk on leadership transitions—in particular, the handoff from one chief executive to the next—at the Small Giants Summit in Detroit. Since joining RBB in 2000, I’ve been on both sides of this coin. I offered a number of hard-won, personal lessons to this enlightened audience of business founders, owners, CEOs, and up-and-comers.
On January 3, 2017, and for only the third time since 1973, a new president took over the reins at RBB. In honor of this historic event and Jim Tennant’s much-deserved promotion, I’d like to share a quick story that demonstrates how Jim began strengthening this organization on day one.
You have a choice in qualified suppliers you can entrust with your control panel and electronic assembly work. It’s important to look for a panel supplier that will work with you every step of the way and not just for you. Ideal partners will thoughtfully review designs and fix any issue that arises, have strict documentation management protocols, and assemble and test every wire and connection.
Located in Wooster, Ohio, RBB is excited to celebrate this year’s Manufacturing Day on Friday, October 7th. As a manufacturer of electronic circuit boards for clients with large portfolios of small batches of custom electronics, RBB is better known as The Small Batch Experts.
RBB has had several company logos since our founding 43 years ago and each one has been a variation on the original concept. Here are just a few:
You’re an OEM with a large annual demand and spending budget, check.
