Semiconductor
Industry  |
|
Every semiconductor company has some unique aspects to its demand planning, supply chain planning and manufacturing execution processes, which translate into a unique set of requirements for a supply chain planning and execution system. These requirements must be incorporated into a supply chain solution for a semiconductor company, whether the modeling is being done for a manufacturer or a fab-less organization. Bristlecone understands these requirements very well through its experience in implementing supply chain solution for multiple semiconductor companies.
Unique requirements for a semiconductor supply
chain planning and execution system include:
|
|
|
|
| Demand
Planning |
|
- Incorporating design wins into the
forecasting process
- Reconciliation between ODM and OEM
forecasts
- Ability to forecast demand for new
devices, which are announced quite frequently
- Modeling forecasts and replenishment
planning in a semiconductor distributor
environment.
|
|
| Supply
Chain Planning |
|
- Model semiconductor supply chain for a fab-less model, Integrated Device Manufacturer (IDM) model and mixed business models.
- Support for various supply models including
Build to Forecast, Build to Order, Build
to Forecast to Die Bank (or any other
postponement stage) and assemble/test
to Order.
- Deriving the wafer starts forecast
while considering the capacities of Outsourced
Semiconductor Assembly and Test (OSAT)
partner.
- Impact of down binning on demand and
supply plan
- Supporting a “die-bank’
strategy
|
|
| Manufacturing
Execution |
|
- Lot Tracking requirements
- Lot Genealogy management
- Support for Lot Splits/Merges
|
|
Bristlecone
understand these requirements very well and
can quickly model them into your supply chain
system implementation. Result: a successful
implementation done quickly and correctly
the first time.

Demand
and Supply Chain Planning at LSI Logic
"After Bristlecone came in and got us
out of our sore spot with Demand Planning,
it was clear that Bristlecone had the experience
and knowledge to continue the process of our
IT roadmap which led us down the path to implementing
the APO, Advanced Planning and Optimization,
module of SAP."

Advanced
planning capabilities at Motorola
Bristlecone implemented advanced demand and
supply chain planning capabilities at Motorola
SPS. Our implementation ... across 12 divisions
and 40 customers helped Motorola to rapidly
achieve increased inventory turns, on-time
delivery, planning data accuracy, and capacity
utilization. |
