TriQuint Semiconductor RapidResponse Case Study: Demand and Supply Responsiveness
Case study showing how TriQuint Semiconductor used Kinaxis RapidResponse to cut scenario analysis time, reduce inventory, and respond faster to demand and supply changes.
TriQuint Semiconductor, a high-tech component manufacturer, faced volatile demand, short product lifecycles, and slow response to customer changes. After implementing Kinaxis RapidResponse, the company reduced S&OP cycle time from seven days to three, enabled same-day customer upside responses, and achieved early inventory reductions. The solution replaced manual Excel processes with standardized workbooks and improved planner productivity by shifting focus from data gathering to analysis.
Reduced S&OP analysis time from seven days to three days
Enabled same-day response to customer demand changes versus up to two weeks previously
Achieved inventory reductions within weeks of going live
Replaced manual Excel reporting with automated RapidResponse workbooks
Shifted planner role from data collection to strategic analysis
