The Singapore based software company D-SIMLAB Technologies acquired strategic resources for its next stage of global expansion

‍

The Background
The global Semiconductor Manufacturing industry has witnessed strong revenue growth in recent years, owing to the increasing demand for ICs driven by digitalization in many industries, in particular the electrification of vehicles, IoT, Cloud Computing and Artificial Intelligence. It is therefore of utmost importance to plan IC manufacturing capacity as effectively and run factories as efficiently as possible. Wafer fabrication facilities, in particular, are very capital intensive, requiring billions of dollars of investment to build them. D-SIMLAB provides the enabling software solution suite to plan IC production, optimize factory load mixes, enhance the material flow in the fab, and schedule operations with the objective to maximize capacity utilization, reduce cycle times, and meet customer due-dates.

‍

The Effort
D-SIMLAB has developed and successfully commercialized high-performance simulation-based Digital Twin components not just for capacity planning and production logistics optimization in Semiconductor Manufacturing but also for spare parts inventory planning and logistics network optimization in Aviation. These solutions have been adopted by well-known blue-chip clients in Southeast Asia, Japan, Europe and the US. The company received strategic resources to ramp up its service capacity to satisfy demands from more clients across a border scope of geographic regions and new asset-intensive industries.
