The Robotic Data Factory Solution, built at TCS’ new Center of Excellence, will significantly reduce the response time to anomalies in semiconductor production
Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), India’s largest software exporter, has launched new Robotic Process Automation (RPA) solutions to drive greater accuracy and better quality in chip fabrication, and help semiconductor companies accelerate their digital transformation journeys.
The company has set up a new Semiconductor Center of Excellence (CoE) to design and build closed loop systems that combine the power of analytics and automation to reimagine the semiconductor fabrication (fab) value chain. Specialists at this CoE are creating solutions that will enable production of robots, powered with intelligent algorithms, to respond to heterogeneous scenarios to improve quality and accuracy throughout the semiconductor manufacturing process.
The TCS Robotic Data Factory solution, built on Blue Prism’s Connected-RPA platform, will leverage insights derived from fab production data to trigger appropriate business workflows, significantly reducing the response time to anomalies in the production of semiconductors.
Partnership for driving innovation
“We are leveraging our deep contextual knowledge gained from engagements in the semiconductor industry and harnessing the power of robotic automation to intelligently streamline core business processes using fab data. This will significantly jumpstart our customers’ Business 4.0 transformation journeys, with faster product introduction and improved quality,” said V Rajanna, Global Head, Technology Business Unit, TCS.
“Our new CoE reiterates our commitment to invest in defining new digital paradigms for the semiconductor industry,” he added.
The combination of TCS’ semiconductor industry expertise and Blue Prism’s Connected-RPA platform can transform operations as well as speed up product delivery, shared Chad Gailey, Vice President, Channel Sales and Global Service Providers, Blue Prism Americas.
“We are driving disruption and innovation by offering an unbeatable value proposition for deploying intelligent automation solutions,” he stated
