Risk Management by Reducing Dependencies

Discontinuations, export restrictions,
chip shortages and infrastructure
outages - these pose serious risks to
production processes. Dealing with
these issues can also add to
significant costs, especially when
relying on third-party software, one
specific manufacturer or cloud
provider.
As an All-In-One solution, emPower OS
ensures these risks and associated
costs are kept to a minimum thanks to
its robust and well-tested software
components which fit together
perfectly. By providing an efficient
environment for developers to work
with, a reduced timescale also brings
costs down. This independence from
providers, manufacturers and vendors
therefore keeps all risks and costs to
the absolute minimum.

Four different scenarios for managing
chip supply shortages with lengthy lead
times are detailed on the right. There
are two possible solutions: Wait or
redesign. In case of a redesign,
basically there are three different
scenarios: |
|
| |
|
|
| |
- The customer uses something other than emPower OS, and redesigns and switches to a
software platform other than emPower OS.
- The customer switches to the emPower OS software.
- The customer already uses emPower OS.

Waiting might cause production to be
halted. To shorten the period until
production can be picked up again, a
hardware redesign might be an option.
Such redesign might prove costly in
terms of time, even a redesign might
not be ready until production halts.
emPower OS can therefore provide a
significantly shorter development cycle
thanks to its extensive hardware
support. If emPower OS already is used,
a production stop can even be avoided
as the redesign on the software side
can be reduced to merely switching a
few drivers, adapting the remaining
direct hardware accesses and testing
functionality. |

Understanding risk is the first step to avoiding it. The following post details
how
underestimated risks can threaten embedded manufacturers production processes.
