Learn moreCritical Manufacturing MES, the platform trusted by the world’s leading chip manufacturers, brings the capabilities that matter most for semiconductor R&D and emerging fabs, packaged for where you are today. No infrastructure overhead, no budget uncertainty. Start focused, demonstrate progress quickly, and scale at your own pace from a foundation that doesn’t need to be rebuilt.
This offer is not a scaled-down version of something bigger. It is a carefully selected package built around the specific realities of running a semiconductor R&D lab or emerging fab, and what it takes to deliver results at this stage.
With Critical Manufacturing MES Packaged SaaS offer for Semiconductors, you will be able to:
Pre-configured semiconductor workflows and hands-on onboarding get your team up and running with real-time experiment tracking, recipe management, and full traceability , without the lengthy setup of a traditional MES project.
Fixed annual subscription. OPEX, not CAPEX. The number you sign stays the number you plan around.
Cloud-hosted on AWS. No servers to procure. No IT team required. Focus stays on your science.
Start with essential MES capabilities and expand progressively as operational complexity and production requirements evolve.
12 modules covering everything from experiment tracking and recipe management to full traceability, equipment control, and statistical process control. You will learn and implement it yourself as you are ready. The same capabilities powering semiconductor execution at the world’s leading chip manufacturers are available as part of your SaaS subscription.
Tracks materials, sub-materials, and their containers throughout the manufacturing process
Defines the process and rework flows as well as it provides step and resource level dispatch rules
Define and execute data collection plans
Enables the design and execution of experiments in an integrated manner
Provides preventive and corrective maintenance to resources, containers and materials
Provides integrated recipe management and recipe resolution capabilities
Provides lot-based sampling as well as sub-material sampling at metrology steps
Performs SPC using standard and user defined SPC validation rules
Ensures end-to-end traceability and genealogy across products, raw materials, resources, and processes
Maintains the factory model and all the manufacturing master data
Monitor equipment activity and availability with full visibility across production and process development environments
Manage bill-of-materials with a structured, traceable, and integrated approach to support accurate production execution
What's included in the SaaS package:
12 semiconductor modules with full platform access
Access to AWS infraestructure with 24/7 hosting with annual support and monitoring
Pre-configured workflows and master data ready from day one
Training available up to 5 trainees with 1 certification included
For any R&D lab, the priorities might differ, but the need to graduate from old, cumbersome and outdated systems is the same. Whether you are a semiconductor R&D facility or a high volume manufacturer, choose an MES that offers system scalability, data visibility, and advanced functionality.
Research Fab Microelectronics Germany has bought together 13 research institutes and given them the advantages of a centralized organization. To further cooperation and accelerated learning among its institutes, FMD decided to source a common Manufacturing Execution System (MES) to operate across its multiple sites.
