Omnify Software, a leading provider of product lifecycle management (PLM) software for electronic, medical, mechanical, and defense manufacturers, is helping customers maintain market share and competitive advantage by supporting their continued compliant product development initiatives in meeting the European Union (EU) Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive that went into effect on July 1, 2006 as well as for impending environmental regulations from other countries. According to Tom Furtado, Mangrove’s Operations Manager, “Omnify Software has been instrumental in accelerating our RoHS compliance by providing strict document control for parts as required by the EU directive. With Omnify, Mangrove’s geographically distributed manufacturing partners are able to view components and their corresponding RoHS documentation in real-time to maintain a shorter procurement cycle and faster time-to-production which can have enormous ramifications on productivity in systems manufacturing.” More
