White Paper: A Systems Approach to Vendor Supply Chain Integration
Given the time, standards and industry discussions to date on the topic of vendor supply chain integration — as well as individual company efforts that have been dedicated to SCM integration — one big question remains. Why isn’t this process easier by now?
Click the image on the left to access the white paper which discusses the challenges to collaboration in the semiconductor supply chain, and suggests a possible solution.
Key Benefits of Tensoft SemiOps:
Production models are based on inverted BOM and many to one production model. Multiple production models, yield and cycle time requirements, binning and multiple package options, as well as downgrades and rework, are all full supported.

Wafer lot, internal lot, and vendor lot can be tracked for every step in the process. Unlimited production attributes can be tracked and used for detailed analysis. Every part has full genealogy associated with it at all times.
Operation Cycle Time Management
Ability to track cycle time data by product, vendor production step, and product variables for detailed sorting and analysis.
Easy Integration
Full integration with planning and forecasting modules. Flexible integration options for integration success, providing benefits such as a closed loop process for 3-way match of order to approved production completion, to vendor invoice, and production pay-points fully integrated with payables process.
Efficient Distributor Management
Manage distributor relationships like rebate management for sales to specific customers, managing price guarantees and stock rotation support.
Controlled Order Management
Leverage different order management flow models to best support multiple business scenarios. Supports NRE, VMI or vendor hub models and traditional orders.

Interview with Dawn Harmon, Former Supply Chain Manager at Ramtron (acquired by Cypress Semiconductor)
Dawn Harmon recently joined us for a video interview about her eight years using with Tensoft SemiOps (formerly known as FSM). As the former supply chain manager at Ramtron International (acquired by Cypress), she has extensive experience with this product, as well as the Tensoft team.
“[Tensoft SemiOps] allows you the flexibility to run your business as you need to, but still keeps you within good business practices, and it keeps your audit trails clean. And so it provides enough discipline throughout the system that you have to keep your procedures in place, but it still gives you the flexibility to run something outside your norm if needed” — Dawn Harmon, Former Supply Chain Manager, Ramtron International
