This work analyzed the capacity planning process
between automotive and semiconductor industry as well
as the different supply chain characteristics in both
industries. In addition, existing models for capacity
planning collaboration in supply chains were explored.
Based on these analyses, a dedicated reference model for
collaborative capacity planning at the interface between
the two industries has been developed. The model
structures and defines measures in terms of strategy,
technology, processes, and IT systems. The
improvement actions in each field are based on research
as well as industrial experience. A number of particular
measures have been outlined in this paper.
Enhanced supply reliability in the automotive supply
chain for semiconductor components can only be
achieved if coordinated action is taken by automotive
and semiconductor industry. The presented reference
model facilitates the development of company-specific
implementation roadmaps in the automotive and
semiconductor industry.
