BOSTON -- Teradyne Inc. and Solectron Corp. last month extended their standard manufacturing agreement to include additional manufacturing and test requirements, including final, configuration and test for most of Teradyne's Flex family of products.

The work for the new requirements will be done by Solectron's Suzhou subsidiary. The agreement with Solectron will expire in 2010, and may be automatically extended for subsequent annual terms.

The companies did not specify the value of the extended agreement.

The original agreement dates to Nov. 24, 2003.


SAN JOSE -- Arena Solutions and Symphony Consulting on Sept. 13 will release findings from a recent joint survey on manufacturing outsourcing challenges and best practices.

Over 800 manufacturers responded and results were "startling," the companies said in a press release. For example, research revealed that while 85% of manufacturers surveyed outsource part or all of their manufacturing operations, nearly two-thirds risk the associated cost-savings because they lack adequate control and processes.

The study results will be revealed in a free webinar Sept. 13 at 10 a.m. Pacific.

Arena senior vice president of operations and strategic development Mark Holman and Symphony co-founder and president Bijan Dastmalchi will host.
