SSIA Supply Chain Management Forum in Singapur

Mit dem Studienschwerpunkt 'Logistik und Supply Chain Management' im Fachbereich Wirtschaftsingenieurwesen an der Hochschule der Bayerischen Wirtschaft engagiert sich WING-Professorin Dr. Holly Ott auch international. Gerade fand das jährlich 'Supply Chain Management Forum' in Singapur statt.

Einer der Referenten auf der diesjährigen Tagung (Schwerpunkt Halbleiter- und Elektrobranche) war Hans Ehm von der Infinion Technologies AG, seines Zeichens auch einer der Fachbeiräte des Studiengangs Wirtschaftsingenieurwesen an der HDBW.

Um was ging es inhaltlich? Hier ein kurzer Abriss in Englischer Sprache: 

Over the past decades, electronic and semiconductor supply chains have been in a state of continuous transformation and advancement in order to effectively manage the pressures of this industry’s volatile and cyclic demand. More recently, this evolvement has intensified, as global markets respond to an increasingly demanding and mobile customer base. Additionally, the proliferation and consolidation of industry players and political and natural crises are forcing these supply chains to achieve high flexibility and agility, while grappling with the increasing complexity this inevitably entails.

Today, supply chain metrics, long recognized as critical for performance measurement, bench-marking and process improvement, must now include new performance measures, ranging from agility and speed, to complexity, to the environmental requirements demanded both from regulatory bodies and the end customer.

Supply chain metrics and measures in the semiconductor and electronics industry are in a phase of great change, presenting us additional opportunities to optimize and evolve our operations to meet new performance criteria and higher standards of execution. New measures and metrics are demanded, together with best practice sharing and benchmarking.

The Singapore Semiconductor Industry Association's 2016 Forum, "Supply Chain Metrics and Measures: Applying the SCOR-model to Modern Challenges” brought together industry practitioners and modeling experts who examined the best practices for today’s supply chain metrics and measures. Welcome were the APICS/Supply Chain Council, who shared the development of the well-established SCOR model to meet today’s complex and often conflicting demands.

All industry partners presented their experiences and learnings, and enabled an interactive and structured discussion among participants. Goal was to bring together the current state of supply chain metrics in the semiconductor and electronics industries and present a complete and cohesive approach to supply chain performance measurement and to identify gaps for further work and research.
