Counterfeiting has a long and ignoble history, ranging from art and literature to manufactured goods. Unlike other industries, counterfeiting in the aerospace, automotive and defence industries may have life or death consequences.
Although it is clear that counterfeit parts do enter the industrial supply chain, the time and place of their entry is unpredictable. Managing this uncertainty has become more important due to the recent rise in the incidence of counterfeit reporting.
counterfeit parts pose a clear and present danger to organizations, their customers and the end-user of products – organizations need to be empowered to meet the challenge by taking preventive action now!
