High-cost data capture goes offshore

Abstract

i2 also keeps its Electronics Reference Database current by using both U.S. and non-domestic services. "i2 has a number of content factories both domestically and overseas," said Keith Doubleday, director of electronics database products at i2. He explained that the content factories are located in the regions where the components originate. Like PartMiner, i2 keeps the more sophisticated work close to home.
