The Time Critical Semiconductor Supply
Photo by CHUTTERSNAP on Unsplash The semiconductor supply chain ensures that the fabricated, assembled, and the tested product reaches customers on time. Achieving this goal requires eliminating all the bottlenecks that might impact the supply process. The standard process to mitigate bottlenecks is to capture the end-to-end supply chain requirements and then proactively fill the gaps. However, the better approach is to capture the supply time and ensure there are no time gaps. Inventory Time: How Long The Existing Supply Will Last. Reload Time: How Long Before The Supply Can Be Restored. In semiconductor supply, there are two ways to look at time: Inventory Time and Reload Time. The former provides a view of how long the inventory will last and later provides details about how much time it will […]
