Abstract: Provided is a technology to scan a document for file attachments, generate alternative file names corresponding to a particular attachment, determine whether or not the particular file attachment is the latest version of a file or has a name and/for file path that could he confused with the name and/or path of another file. In the event one or more of the above conditions is met, techniques are also provided to verify that the file attachment is the desired file and, if necessary, to select an alternative file for attachment.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a supplier ID module that identifies one or more suppliers that provide a component in a selection process that includes selecting suppliers to supply the component for use in a product made by a user. An existing product search module searches data sources available on the internet for the component or existing products that contain the component. A category module identifies one or more categories related to the component, where each category is related to risk assessment for the component and/or suppliers of the component. A component data search module searches data sources available on the internet for risk assessment information related to the component and/or existing products with the component. The information is relevant to the one or more categories and each item of risk assessment information identifies the supplier that provided the component. A categorization module categorizes the risk assessment information.

Abstract: A system for facilitating supplier qualification and quality management functions includes an application executing on a host system and a web-based user interface provided by the application, the web-based user interface collaboratively enabling qualification of suppliers, parts, and technologies over a network. The system also includes a shared data repository and a workstation in communication with the host system, and a supplier in communication with the host system via the user interface and network. The collaborative qualification includes acquiring supplier capabilities, part data, and supplier technology data from a collaborative source via the user interface. The collaborative qualification also includes storing acquired data in the shared data repository, and performing quality management functions via the user interface and shared data repository.

Abstract: An exemplary embodiment of the invention relates to an integrated computer-based method and system for facilitating supplier qualification and quality management. This computer-based method and system includes a host system receiving a request from a user system to execute supplier qualification and quality management software, executing the requested software at the host system, sending results of the software execution to the user system, receiving input at the host system from the user system in response to the software execution, and providing the user system with output generated as a result of executing the software. The supplier qualification and quality management software includes a selection module, a qualification module and a quality module.

Abstract: The composition of the present invention includes a water-soluble soldering flux requiring no thermal energy to place the water-soluble flux in an active state. The water-soluble soldering flux contains (1) from about 1 percent to about 5 percent by weight, based on the weight of the water-soluble soldering flux, of an inorganic acid which, in solution, forms anions of the acid having a low propensity for forming metal complexes; (2) from about 30 percent to about 70 percent by weight, based on the total weight of the water-soluble soldering flux, of an anionic surfactant; and (3) from about 30 percent to about 70 percent by weight, based on the total weight of the water-soluble soldering flux, of a diluent. The composition of the present invention may contain a fourth component, a viscosity modifier from about 5 percent to about 40 percent by weight, based on total weight of the water-soluble soldering flux.
