Part 3: Impact Over ASMPT Logo White BackgroundTime of Business Functions

In the context of ASMPT’s CBF-2 Manufacturing and Assembly Operations, understanding the impact of disruptions over time is crucial for maintaining operational resilience and compliance with ISO 22301.

Each sub-critical business function (Sub-CBF) within manufacturing and assembly is interdependent and contributes directly to product delivery, customer commitments, and financial performance.

The “Impact Over Time” analysis allows ASMPT to quantify how quickly the effects of a disruption escalate—from minor inefficiencies to severe production stoppages—across key operational areas such as financial performance, regulatory compliance, customer satisfaction, and reputational impact

This assessment provides management with clear visibility of:

  • The rate at which impacts intensify over hours and days.
  • The Recovery Time Objective (RTO) required to restore operations.
  • The Maximum Tolerable Period of Disruption (MTPD) beyond which business continuity is threatened.
  • The vulnerable periods during which ASMPT is most exposed to operational or market risks.

Part 4: Supporting IT Systems and Applications

The efficiency and resilience of ASMPT’s manufacturing and assembly operations are critically dependent on IT systems, applications, and specialised equipment.

These systems support not only the execution of production processes but also the integration of data-driven automation, quality assurance, and advanced analytics that underpin ASMPT’s leadership in semiconductor and electronics manufacturing.

Business continuity in this context requires a clear understanding of the recovery point objectives (RPO), system recovery time objectives (RTO), and dependencies on specialised resources that enable seamless recovery during disruptions.

The following table outlines the supporting IT systems and applications for each Sub-CBF under CBF-2, together with their continuity requirements.

Summing Up... Part 3

The analysis of impact over time for ASMPT’s CBF-2 Manufacturing and Assembly Operations highlights how rapidly disruptions can escalate into severe operational, financial, and reputational risks.

  • Time sensitivity is critical: Functions like wafer preparation, bonding, assembly, and quality assurance demonstrate immediate impacts within the first 24–48 hours, emphasizing the need for short RTOs.
  • Medium- to long-term risks: Areas such as automation integration and smart factory systems have longer tolerances but, if unresolved, significantly weaken ASMPT’s market position and strategic resilience.
  • Vulnerability windows: The first 1–3 days are the most critical, where operational disruption quickly translates into customer dissatisfaction, financial penalties, and reputational damage.

This structured assessment ensures ASMPT’s leadership can prioritize recovery strategies, align resources effectively, and safeguard business continuity in alignment with ISO 22301 standards.

Summing Up ... for Part 4

Supporting IT systems and applications is the backbone of ASMPT’s manufacturing and assembly operations.

Each Sub-CBF has distinct dependencies on specialised IT infrastructure and equipment, with varying RPO and RTO requirements based on its role in the production chain.

High-dependency areas, such as process monitoring (CBF-2.8) and smart factory integration (CBF-2.7), demand near-immediate recovery capabilities due to their role in ensuring real-time decision-making and quality assurance.

By aligning IT recovery priorities with critical business functions, ASMPT ensures that its manufacturing operations remain resilient against disruptions, safeguarding operational continuity, customer commitments, and its position as a global leader in semiconductor and electronics manufacturing solutions.
