IPC’s Enterprise Membership Option Simplifies Dues Structure
January 29, 2018 | IPCEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
IPC’s membership department is constantly working to expand its portfolio of exclusive member benefits, services and membership options. With feedback from IPC members, the membership team has developed a more comprehensive dues structure to make it simple for all divisions, groups and employees of a company to access the rich suite of IPC member benefits.
“Our members spoke, we listened, and in an effort to increase engagement and ease of use, we are transitioning our Enterprise Membership to a revenue-based model which will give IPC the ability to optimally serve our membership efficiently and effectively,” said Tracy Riggan, IPC senior director, Member Support. “Additionally, this method aligns us with the structures of other associations of which many of our member companies may be a part,” she added.
Features of the Enterprise Membership option include:
- Gives companies an "all in" membership option to replace site-count tiered discount structure, making it much easier for existing members to increase their engagement with IPC
- Simplifies membership dues structure to prospective new members
- Provides efficient membership processing for buyers and IPC staff
- An upgraded listing in IPC’s buyer’s guide, IPC Global Marketplace
According to Riggan, individual site membership (2018 prices: $1,300 for primary, $1,100 for each additional when joining at the same time) is still available for those who prefer this option. “For companies that recognize the importance of giving multiple company sites access to IPC membership benefits, Enterprise Membership provides the same benefits as “single-site” membership to all employees at designated locations at significant savings over single-site membership dues” she said. “In addition, Enterprise members receive an upgraded listing in IPC Global Marketplace worth $500 and the assistance of the IPC team to help communicate the benefits throughout their company.”

It’s been raining since March, and I’m so over it, as the social influencers say. Last night we grilled out on the deck, and it wasn’t hot, and we didn’t get rained on. Life is good. It was a busy week in the industry. In this installment of my must-reads, we say goodbye to Walt Custer, the man who made PCB data points interesting for the rest of us.

08/29/2025 | Nolan Johnson, I-Connect007This week, we bring you Global Electronics Association’s Chris Mitchell’s government relations column on—you guessed it—trade deals. TTM is balancing its facilities between East and West. The Global Electronics Association released July numbers for North American PCB shipments, and the news is good. Meanwhile, the corresponding report for EMS might seem like bad news, but that’s misleading. Be sure to look deeper for the rest of the story. Finally, for a bit space-science palate cleansing, I’m sharing news of the latest launch of NASA’s X-37B.
