Practical, standards-based solutions for electrostatic discharge control in modern manufacturing.
ESD control programs must work in the real manufacturing environment. Services are tailored to the organization's products, processes, risks, standards, and existing quality systems.
Develop, improve, or expand an ESD control program based on the actual risks and requirements of the organization.
Independent assessment of an existing ESD program against ANSI/ESD S20.20 requirements to identify gaps, risks, and opportunities for improvement.
Objective evaluation of ESD controls, documentation, personnel practices, equipment, materials, and verification activities.
Technical review of ESD compliance verification activities and measurement practices, with particular emphasis on meaningful verification rather than simply completing checklists.
Evaluation and development of Electrostatic Protected Area controls for personnel, equipment, materials, insulators, and isolated conductors.
Technical support when ESD-related failures, unexplained defects, or process concerns require structured engineering investigation.
ANSI/ESD S20.20 provides the framework for establishing an ESD control program. Successful implementation requires more than installing ESD flooring, wrist straps, or signage. The program must connect technical controls, documented requirements, personnel training, compliance verification, and management responsibility.
ESD Pro Solutions can help organizations understand where they are today, identify what is missing, and develop a practical path toward a sustainable and auditable ESD control program.
Understand existing controls, processes, documentation, risks, and gaps.
Establish practical controls, procedures, training, and verification methods.
Build verification, auditing, corrective action, and continuous improvement into the program.
An independent technical perspective can identify issues that are difficult to see from inside an organization.
Review the overall ESD control program, including its documented elements, technical requirements, responsibilities, training, and verification.
Evaluate whether ESD controls actually address the risks presented by products, processes, equipment, materials, and personnel.
Identify potential gaps and weaknesses before an organization enters the formal certification or surveillance audit process.
Training should explain not only what the standard requires, but why the requirements exist and how they apply to the manufacturing environment.
Kevin has developed and delivered ESD training for engineering, manufacturing, quality, and management audiences, including programs covering ESD control program development, assessment, ionization, and footwear/flooring systems.
Practical understanding of ESD control program requirements and implementation.
Training for personnel responsible for evaluating and maintaining ESD program effectiveness.
Understanding ionizer application, limitations, verification, and common implementation issues.
Practical understanding of personnel grounding through footwear/flooring systems and associated verification.
Services are informed by extensive experience with the development, interpretation, implementation, and assessment of electrostatics standards.
Whether you need a gap analysis, program assessment, technical investigation, training, or help developing an ESD control strategy, ESD Pro Solutions can provide an independent, experienced perspective.
