Supply Chain Mechanism in Semiconductor Industry

Image
What is Supply Chain? Supply chain management is the management of flow of goods and services from the procurement of raw material to producing the final product. Supply chain is an important mechanism in almost every industry as it determines the competitive advantage of a company over its competitors. Supply chain management also plays a key role in the semiconductor industry. Semiconductors are a key component for almost every electronic and digital product in today’s modern era. Thus optimum supply chain for semiconductors is a need of today. Not only proper supply chain mechanism is needed for semiconductors but also for the semiconductor machine as these machines play a key role in the manufacturing, assembling and testing of semiconductor chips.   Nature of Logistics in Semiconductor Industry: Very few industries face such complex issues in logistics management which are faced by the semiconductor industry. As semiconductors are quite fragile in nature and their effi...

The Domination of American Companies in Various Industries

The journey of wristwatches from performing the primary objective of showing time to equipped with a number of features has really shaped the importance and demand for watches. From the early use of portable watches which were specifically made for the purpose of keeping a track of time to, today’s smartwatches are equipped with semiconductor chips and processors. In earlier days, only watch manufacturing companies were affected with the demand of watches but today, the b iggest semiconductor companies are also affected by it. The concept of a portable watches is not new, as it dates back to more than 500 years ago, when the very first wristwatch was made. In this article, we will discuss about the evolution of wristwatches from its original form to today’s innovative design. The Era of Pocket Watches: In earlier days, pocket watch was popular.
