Overview

Infosys Semiconductor practice designs and deploys manufacturing execution systems (MES) for seamless wafer processing operations. We develop a blueprint to help semiconductor enterprises adopt next-generation MES solutions. Our experienced team provides upgrade, migration, and maintenance services to capitalize on existing MES software, incorporate new features, and resolve issues, without disrupting the production environment.

Infosys creates a smart foundry ecosystem by integrating MES with PLM and ERP systems. Our approach drives lean manufacturing with an on-demand, scalable and agile infrastructure and a closed-loop control mechanism. It helps monitor, control and optimize production as well as the product lifecycle. This connected ecosystem helps bridge capability gaps on the shop floor with IIoT solutions, ML applications, and predictive analytics. Moreover, the seamless integration of ERP, MES and PLM systems facilitates real-time monitoring of critical production metrics such as process efficiency, plant / equipment downtime, productivity, and product quality.

The ability to collect and analyse real-time data from various sources helps manufacturers identify bottlenecks, synchronize production with demand and delivery schedules, and modify production plans to deliver high priority orders. Significantly, it allows foundries to optimize capacity allocation to IDMs, design houses and fabless partners. A cloud and AI-driven connected landscape provides an end-to-end view of production, while condition monitoring of tools and machines maximizes resource utilization. Notably, in addition to enhancing foundry performance, business insights and decision support empower fabs to improve inventory and supplier management and ensure regulatory compliance.

Real-time visibility into wafer processing operations boosts quality and efficiency.
