Talk to AX3

Semiconductor and technology companies sell highly technical products into global accounts through design cycles that can span years. Design wins, samples, forecasts, pricing and partner activity are often tracked in spreadsheets and disconnected systems, so leadership lacks a reliable view of pipeline quality or account health. AX3 combines technology-industry expertise with Salesforce, AI, data and digital engineering to make the design-win lifecycle visible, predictable and intelligent — from opportunity through production ramp and support.

Who we serve

Fabless SemiconductorIntegrated Device ManufacturersFoundry & OSATSemiconductor EquipmentEDA & Silicon IPElectronic ComponentsEnterprise HardwareHigh-Tech & Software
Challenge · Technology · Talent

Yield, capacity and design velocity depend on engineering and data working as one system.

The same three-part view AX3 applies to every industry — what is actually hard in semiconductor & technology, the technology that resolves it, and the specialized people needed to run it.

Key challenges

  • Yield and process data fragmentation

    Fab, test and supplier data sit in separate systems, so root-cause analysis on excursions takes weeks instead of shifts.

  • Design-to-fab collaboration

    Design, foundry and OSAT partners work across contract boundaries with limited shared visibility of change, risk and readiness.

  • Capacity and demand volatility

    Allocation decisions are made on stale forecasts, leaving revenue exposed when demand or wafer starts move.

Discuss your challenge

Technology

  • Manufacturing data platforms

    Unified process, equipment and test data models that make fab telemetry usable for engineering and commercial decisions.

  • AI for yield analytics

    Excursion detection, parametric drift models and guided root-cause narratives that shorten the path from signal to corrective action.

  • Cloud and HPC engineering

    Elastic compute for simulation, EDA workloads and verification pipelines, with cost and security governance built in.

Technology Solutions

Talent

  • Process and equipment engineers

    Fab-experienced engineers for process control, tool qualification and sustaining engineering — permanent or contract.

  • Data and MLOps engineers

    Specialists who productionize yield and telemetry models rather than leaving them in notebooks.

  • Design verification talent

    Verification, DFT and physical design engineers sourced for tape-out critical windows.

Industry Use Cases

Where transformation shows up in the business.

Design-Win Pipeline Integrity

Sockets, programs and qualification stages are tracked consistently, giving leadership a trustworthy view of future revenue.

Sample Request Automation

Evaluation requests, approvals, shipment and follow-up are orchestrated and linked to the opportunity.

Distributor Visibility

Point-of-sale and inventory data from distributors is unified with direct pipeline for a single demand picture.

Application Engineering Support

AI assistants ground answers in datasheets, reference designs and prior cases, reducing engineer load.

Ramp Forecasting

AI forecasting blends design-win stage, historical ramp curves and channel data to sharpen supply planning.

Technical Sales Enablement

Field and application engineers share one opportunity record covering technical requirements, sample status and design-win stage.

Forecasting Across Ramp Phases

AI forecasting reconciles design-win stage data with historical ramp curves to sharpen wafer and unit demand planning.

Partner Ecosystem Registration

Distributor and design-partner deal registrations flow into the same opportunity pipeline, reducing channel conflict and duplicate quoting.
