7. Millitech Proprietary Selling Compliance to the Engineers Pressures Include: – Product Innovation – Design and Manufacturer – Cost and Delivery

8. Millitech Proprietary Selling Compliance to Engineers Like product design, Compliance has components and critical performance factors Platform or project for the design: military or civil? General functionality or use of the product: determines USML or ECCN classification How it’s designed? i.e. If we design in an ITAR chip the commercial product becomes ITAR. Form, fit, function: Can we make this a dual use product?

9. Millitech Proprietary Selling Compliance to Engineers The Message: Engineers are not only concerned with the quality of their products, but very often have time limitations to deliver them. If compliance is ignored in the timeline, the completion date may be met, but the delivery date will be missed because a license was not applied for in time, or the data required for the license application is incomplete. The Payoff: If the engineers share the information that they know with their TCO in a timely manner, they will be more likely to meet their delivery deadlines as well as their production deadlines. Actions: Have TCO involved in design process to help determine classifications up front.

The earlier that this happens in the sales cycle, the greater the chance to complete a sale successfully. The Payoff: Because of the restrictions of U.S. export regulations, salespeople can pursue the most promising leads by understanding to who they can sell, and under what conditions. Actions: Empower your salespeople by training them! TCO’s need to be involved in quote & sale.
