NYC Broadcast Engineering Firm Responds to Electronic Parts Shortage Caused by Japanese Manufacturing Halts

New York, NY, March 31, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Toyota announced Wednesday that some of its plants will remain idle as demand for parts by US manufacturers are left unmet due to extended production halts made at the company’s factories in Japan. Honda and other major electronic firms like Sony and Lenovo are having similar production problems due to a shortage of raw materials, components and power caused by the massive earthquake in Japan last March 11.

Japan, being the world’s largest supplier of silicon used to make semiconductor chips, is creating a global impact on major manufacturers of professional equipment for the TV broadcast and audio video industry. The production halts are causing many end-users of audio visual (AV) equipment to scramble for parts, many of which are available and workable at repair centers like Technical Operations, Inc. Tech-Ops’ Manhattan-based center offers free pick-up and delivery and guarantees 24-hour turn-around on service. “We are proactive about giving solutions to this electronics shortage by campaigning for immediate equipment repair. Instead of waiting in-line for out-of-stock equipment and parts, Tech-Ops can repair audio-video systems and bring it back to manufacturer’s spec. Thus, relieving companies of headache brought about by electronics scarcity, price hike and new equipment purchase costs,” says Tech-Ops President, Achille Raspantini.

Lucy Gonzalez, Tech-Ops Operations Director explains, “Our certified technicians can find a way to resolve functionality and lifespan issues of your broadcast and industrial equipment. Some repairs require no parts replacement, thus, it’s important that end-users (who rely heavily on this type of equipment) bring it to our shop ASAP (or have it picked-up) for assessment.” She further says that AV equipment managers need to be decisive and resourceful when it pertains to the condition of their equipment as their inability to use it can damage their productivity and operations.

Tech-Ops has set up a toll-free hotline at 1-877-420-1600 for both new and current, in or out-of-state clients that have AV repair needs. Inquiries can also be sent via e-mail to info@tech-ops.com or on Twitter (http://twitter.com/Tech-Ops.com). The company’s main site http://www.tech-ops.com gives prospective clients an overview of its service offerings.
