Component Manufacturers Survey: COVID-19 Impacts to Our Industry

The impact of the COVID-19 Coronavirus is continually evolving and SBC Magazine wants to track the direct effect it is having on the component manufacturing industry. We plan to conduct this survey once a week to track trends over time so the questions will remain relatively similar.
