Current business processes and challenges • Too Many intermediate systems to manage • Very complex and distributed error management • Near impossible lot tracking towards actual vendor events • Complex and inconsistent reporting Page 5
Current business processes and challenges • Poor and manual data collection through email • Poor data processing • Distributed error management • So many systems => not scalable and robust • Not web based • Added delay in transaction processing • Very limited BOMS and Routing structures • No Split and Merge function supported Page 6

Vendor Certification and Data collection • USJade developed a vendor certification package to effectively gauge and help vendors understand the B2B system and formats of reporting. Following information was provided in the package: • Vendor Guide • B2B Overview • Teams and Roles • Project Plan • Communication Plan • File Formats and sample data • Certification Metrics • SST Vendor Set-up Procedure • System/Process Questionnaire • Data-Element • Flows and Routings • Common Mistakes Page 11
B2B Web Application Screens User Error Management and Corrections Edit Manual Transactions Page 12
B2B Web Application Screens Excellent Reporting and auditing capabilities Page 13
B2B Web Application Screens Graphical Analytical Reports with various options Page 14
B2B Web Application Screens Vendor Management and Admin Capabilities Page 15
Key Benefits • Greater visibility into the supply chain • Lot traceability by manufacturing stage (wafer, sorted wafer, etc.) • Lot movement between Vendors • Quick reporting of Manufacturing Transactions • Faster processing of Manufacturing Transactions • Realistic vendor WIP • Standardize reporting format • Scalable solution • Centralized Error Management • Improved Vendor reporting accuracy • B2B foundation for automating additional processes Page 16
Challenges and Lessons Learnt • Identify all the key stakeholders and keep them in all the key decision making through out • Smaller milestones in the project would help better management • Detailed planning needed improvement, with work break down structures • Too aggressive timelines still was able to meet the schedule • Good vendor feedback, in terms of the whole B2B implementation process • Team took risk based on the parallel run test results, as parallel run transactions success volume low • Take extra time performing detailed scope analysis and process definition in a coordinated manner • Identify super user from each department and allocate time towards the project • SDLC usage to be explored for multiple technology project • Establish authority for functional decision making • Data conversion was very comprehensive and challenging as it involved changes for Vendor, system WIP and on-hand balances.
