Semiconductor supply planning by considering transit options to take advantage of pre-productions and order cancellations
We model the semiconductor supply chain which consists of factory, DC and customer. Two transit options and uncertainties stem from supply and demand are considered. The supply plan is decided by the length of lead time from reception to due week. Enough pre-productions or order cancellations make emergency transit beneficial. When an economy is weak, the start of productions can be delayed to save cost.
