• Having an internationally recognized EMC/ESD expert on the design team improves the chance of winning contracts, reduces EMC design time, and helps deliver the product faster? This is true even if it's only for a short period of time.

• A prediction and analysis of potential electromagnetic interactions done before or during the beginning of the design will identify the problems while it's still early enough to make changes? Besides, it's a control plan requirement of MIL-STD-461.

• It takes specialized knowledge to do EMC hardening of COTS systems or equipment to meet those severe DOD, COMSEC, or aerospace EMC requirements.

• It's possible to enhance the staff EMC/ESD knowledge base quickly and at a reasonable cost? Having everybody with a better understanding of EMC and the design techniques shortens design time and reduces mysterious failures later on.

• This site contains free EMC/ESD design information, articles, and white papers?
