Overview
challenge
Creative Electronics must shorten time-to-market, improve project time management, improve quality assurance and capacity, and address the challenges of globalization in the highly competitive IC design market.
solution
Creative Electronics chose ENOVIA V6 for its rich applications, scalable architecture and easy-to-customize mechanisms.
income
ENOVIA V6 enables Creative Electronics to quickly meet customer needs, achieve the goal of reducing time to market, and reduce R&D costs for Creative Electronics and its customers.
Taiwan's sixth largest IC design company
Founded in 1988, Creative Electronics Co., Ltd. is currently the sixth largest IC design company in Taiwan. Its customers come from all over the world. The total revenue in 2008 reached NT$ 9.28 billion. The company specializes in integrated circuit design solutions, has advanced design techniques in the process, and has a rich and efficient design resource.
Complex supply chain management
In order to properly manage the extremely complex supply chain of the IC design industry, Creative Electronics hopes to adopt a flexible and innovative business model and to be a key design hub, and to provide IP (silicon intellectual property) suppliers. Integrated with third-party IC design.
However, the company must first sort out the various internal operations, because each department has always been a separate government, and the communication between different systems can not be synchronized. On the other hand, since the project information is updated manually once a week, the project progress data is often distorted. In addition, product management often requires a lot of resources, and knowledge of problem solving is difficult to accumulate and cannot be saved in the database.
After each design project is completed, Creative Electronics must maintain close communication, contact and cooperation with wafer fabs, packaging factories and other third parties. Therefore, a comprehensive project management integration platform must be established to properly handle them. Various complicated business processes inside and outside the company.
Solid and flexible solution
After a careful evaluation, Creative Electronics selected Dassault Systèmes' ENOVIA V6 because the ENOVIA collaboration platform provides flexible, open standards-based, scalable and industry-specific features to help today's global businesses closely Link engineering teams and product developers from different disciplines to their respective business roles. Dassault Systèmes' professional team of consultants also left a deep impression on Creative Electronics.
The implementation project began in phases in 2008, and 20 system Lotus Notes systems were gradually incorporated into the ENOVIA V6 platform, becoming an integrated management architecture with high customization flexibility, which can provide solutions for various project needs.
Get the right information quickly
This PLM system allows Creative Electronics to obtain detailed data on past projects and quickly produce and deliver accurate quotes for future design projects. The time required to prepare a quote has been shortened from the past three weeks to the current week.
Since all kinds of information can be shared smoothly, the design engineers of integrated circuits can cooperate with each other in the form of a team, so various problems can be effectively solved; and the management team can obtain real-time project status information, so it can be mastered. Make better decisions in the case of multiple information.
As the product design and development process is closely monitored, Creative Electronics is able to deliver the products requested by customers on time, enabling customers to achieve their time-to-market goals. “This solution has a powerful communication platform and problem management function, which not only helps to increase production, but also greatly enhances our ability to deliver products in a timely manner,†said Li Hongjun, Director of Creative Electronics Design Development.
ENOVIA V6 captures the life cycle of the product as well as program management, information management, problem management and other details, so that every member of the project management team can get real-time and correct first-hand information.
Better communication, closer contact
The solution can also work with IP (silicon intellectual property) suppliers, third-party IC design, wafer fabrication facilities, integrated circuit testers, packaging plants and other external units. Under this integrated, cross-departmental platform, all employees involved in a variety of processes work closely together to maximize the allocation of human resources and reduce communication costs.
As for the tracking of post-processing information, it can be stored in the system for future use, resulting in a problem-solving rate from 24% to 55%.
Automated real-time reporting simplifies the complexity of the build process, allowing the management team to fully understand the progress of the project and the causes of abnormal conditions. The general project sample built into the system can improve the execution and quality of the project.
Li Hongjun pointed out: "ENOVIA V6 enables Creative Electronics to maintain its leading position in the IC design industry. This system provides a variety of project management tools that enable us to use enterprise resources with greater efficiency and greatly simplify product design and projects. The process of control."
Increase revenue and reduce costs
Future Creative Electronics is also preparing to expand the range of business applications for PLM systems. From the perspective of revenue, this system not only improves the timeliness and accuracy of the quotation operation, but also has real-time quotation response and simultaneous quotation evaluation, which helps to obtain more orders for creative electronics.
The PLM system accurately predicts the quantity of shipments (cost of expenditure) and time schedule, helping creative electronics to grasp the bargaining power between suppliers and suppliers, and further control their cost. The system also helps early warning companies reduce the high costs of project delays. In addition, the PLM system can automatically generate inspection reports under the application mechanism of process standardization, and as long as the relevant standard index reports are reviewed, the defect rate of the products can be reduced.
