Abstract :
The unstable microelectronics business environment, the dynamics of fabs and high production costs require flexible and agile management approaches and decision support systems. This article shows the impact of qualification management of machines in general, and in particular that of new products, on capacity optimization. By using relevant indicators, we show how capacity planning can be improved by performing the correct qualifications.
