Fabless Companies
Fabless companies sit between their end customer and their manufacturing partners. If a product fails in the field, they need to determine if the failure is design-related or manufacturing defect-related. The ability to access all associated manufacturing data is hampered by the contracts between the design company and the manufacturing sites. The ability to have full traceability of your product through the supply chain can be a challenge. Product engineers at a fabless company may not have full knowledge of the manufacturing processes used at the test facilities, yet they need tools to comprehend the manufacturing data which is provided to them by their partners.
Tracking down data, making it clean, and writing scripts to create yield reports can seem daunting to both quality and product engineers at fabless companies. Having a yield management system in place provides centralization of all data sources. Thereby quality and product engineers can focus on asking questions and solving problems.
Engineers and planners in fabless companies value the functionality found in the following yieldWerx products: Cross Work Center Correlation, Lot Genealogy, Power BI Dashboard, Statistical Bin, and Yield Limits, Production Reporting.
