In the following, improvement actions are presented
which primarily address the medium- and long-term
capacity planning process. They allow a more efficient
coordination of production capacity and a better
response to demand fluctuations between automotive
and semiconductor industry. First, measures with respect
to the capacity planning process (Process) itself and the
supporting IT Systems are presented. These measures
can be implemented in the short or medium term.
Subsequently, measures in the dimensions of
Technology and Strategy are described improving the
flexibility of the semiconductor supply chain in general.
These measures address the underlying problems of
today’s cross-company capacity planning process. They
can only be implemented in the long run.
