In this episode of The Critical Lowdown, Ciara McCarthy sits down with Mick McCarthy, Chief Operations Officer at EPS Global, to discuss a critical decision for manufacturers: Should you handle component programming in-house at ICT (in-circuit test), or should you outsource it?

Mick dives deep into the complexities of in-house programming, from managing expensive equipment and software to ensuring quality and traceability. He explains how outsourcing component programming can:

✅ Simplify production processes

✅ Eliminate bottlenecks at ICT

✅ Increase throughput and efficiency

✅ Reduce costs on equipment and resources

✅ Ensure top-tier quality and traceability

With 25+ years of experience and 22 programming centers worldwide, EPS Global has the expertise to help manufacturers optimize their production lines and focus on their core strengths.
