How well is your product organized? How good are your processes and procedures? How well is the process flow organized? How well do you keep metrics? It is extremely important to realize that a quality improvement program starts with the first step, not when you complete a checklist, like the list above. Another essential ingredient to a quality improvement program is management \"buy in\" and the will or desire to get better. As the data for the quality improvement programs become available, some problems will be embarrassing, obvious, repetitious, and frustrating. Senior managements' role is to be supportive. Without the real inward desire to make the process better, the quality improvement program will be reduced to number crunching, or number creativity.","PeriodicalId":403090,"journal":{"name":"Thirteenth IEEE/CHMT International Electronics Manufacturing Technology Symposium","volume":"100 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121471642","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The manual acquisition of PM data can vary drastically from one technician to anot.her causing unneeded system down time and inaccurate data tracking.

Semiconductors are the building blocks of electronic products; and most industries, whether they manufacture products or deliver services, depend on electronics for their competitive advantage. Global competition in semiconductors and electronic products is jierce. But, the rewards are great. Electronics, a $750 billion global enterprise, employs large numbers of people with a broad set of skills. It is not fortuitous that many governments have been quick to realize the economic implication of a strong electronics sector and have set about developing policies and practices to both develop and nurture their domestic sectors. This paper traces key market trends in both semiconductors and electronics, and root causes are offered to explain the loss of US. market share in the various product areas. Linkages will be identifred between semiconductors, electronic products and the broad set of industries that depend on electronics. And, an argument will be set forth that strength in these three sectors depends on strength in each component (the chain being as strong as the weakest link). Finally, the proposals of the National Advisory Committee on Semiconductors, aimed at assuring robustness in semiconductor and electronic product markets, will be sketched. These proposals address a number of key issues, such as: improving industrial investment in plants and equipment, stimulating high-volume electronics manufacturing, and renewing the commitment to highquality manufacturing skills. These proposals are broad enough that, if acted upon, they would greatly enhance the global competitiveness of many US. industries. The Case for Semiconductors The U.S. semiconductor industry is a critical base for the hightechnology industry that, in turn, is vital to the country’s wellbeing. Land, labor, and capital once determined the economic strength of nations. Today, technology must be added as a fourth contributor. The standard of living and security of industrial nations have been linked to the success of high-technology industries, including aircraft, computers, telecommunications, and consumer electronics. To maintain its prosperity, the United States (both private industry and the various, relevant government departments and agencies) must take the necessary steps to assure that a process is in place that enables a continuous creation of a competitive advantage in such industries. High-technology industries are critically linked to each other and to their underlying technologies by a number of customer-supplier relationships. Customers must stimulate suppliers with abundant leading-edge systems applications and a market large enough to support investment in the suppliers’ people, technology development and manufacturing facilities. Suppliers must be easily accessible and willing to work closely with customers to provide timely delivery, improve their products, and to be respon","PeriodicalId":403090,"journal":{"name":"Thirteenth IEEE/CHMT International Electronics Manufacturing Technology Symposium","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121405725","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
