Business Need:

STATS ChipPAC Ltd. wanted to create a program to facilitate better decision making regarding management performance. The key goals of this program, known as TURBO, were to maximize quality of revenue, capacity assignment and opportunities. In launching an initiative called “The Intelligent Enterprise” to assist in the creation of TURBO, the company realized it needed a faster and better way to generate information and reports for cross-functional use and decision making. In addition, it needed better processes and tools to achieve the goals set for the TURBO program.

Solution:

STATS ChipPAC engaged IBM Software Services for Information Management to deliver a series of IBM Information Agenda Engagement workshops. One workshop, titled “Business Optimization With Information Architecture,” pointed the client toward IBM InfoSphere Information Server software.

STATS ChipPAC uses InfoSphere Information Server software for the extract, transform and load (ETL) data processes as well as to improve data quality. With its flexibility and high-performance features, this software enables seamless integration of the client’s secured data wherever it is needed. In addition, it improves speed of availability and has higher volume capabilities.

Benefits of the Solution:

After working with IBM Software Services for Information Management to deliver an IBM Information Agenda Engagement, STATS ChipPAC implemented IBM InfoSphere Information Server software and achieved the following:

• Improved the speed of information availability
• Gained the ability to generate information and reports more thoroughly and seamlessly, allowing cross functional use and better decision making
• Improved its efficiency through better data processing methods
• Acquired better tools to make improvements possible
• Helped achieve the goals of the TURBO program by reducing operational costs and increasing data processing capacity.
