Using the Six-Sigma Methodology to Improve Wafer Fab Productivity
As a result of consolidation of operations and significantly increased production requirements, Intersil's main Fab was facing bottlenecks in supply versus demand. Intersil enlisted Tefen USA first to support identifying the Fab bottleneck, and then to develop a comprehensive roadmap for capacity and cycle time improvements. A team composed of Tefen USA and Intersil members conducted a short assessment to confirm that the Photo area was the bottleneck, and then initiated an aggressive and focused cross-functional improvement team. The improvement team combined their extensive experience in semiconductor manufacturing with the DMAIC methodology to systematically Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control the Photo performance. In the next six months after the initial assessment photo cycle time dropped by 60%, while Photo and overall Fab production increased to record levels (a 40% increase). In the following article, we will highlight how we used the Six-Sigma DMAIC approach and other tools to eliminate the bottleneck, and ultim

Key Steps to a Sound Business Purchase Structure
If you have just decided to start the process of buying your first company or if you are a seasoned mergers and acquisitions professional, you as a business buyer, need to utilize a disciplined, structured approach to purchase the best business acquisition possible. This article will give you a shortcut to incorporating most of the elements you must have to systematically qualify and “bias” the business purchase negotiations in your favor with the business seller.Buying a business is a “one off”, iterative process in that each purchase opportunity is unique and different with regard to its sense of urgency from the seller’s perspective. However, as each purchase situation is different, if you do many business acquisitions over time you quickly see that there are fundamental elements to the location, qualification and negotiation processes of buying a business, that once learned, can be leveraged repeatedly from one business purchase opportunity to another.Four Steps to Business Valuation and Purchase/ Sa

You know from personal experience that the title of this article is absolutely, 100% true. You may not want to believe it, but your experience tells you otherwise. Think about it. What is the purpose of a budget? To save money. But ask yourself this: Why would you need to save your money, if you are creating abundance in your life?
When you focus on prosperity, then that is your reality. When you focus on lack, then that is your reality. You cannot focus on both prosperity and lack at the same time. The same way you cannot be sad and happy at the same time, you cannot experience abundance and scarcity at the same time.
Have you ever stopped to ask yourself why you want to save money? Are you saving for a big purchase, or perhaps for an unexpected emergency? A “rainy day” mentality cannot coexist with a prosperity mentality. One cancels the other out.
So, if you choose to focus your efforts on saving a penny here, a dollar there, then you will. You absolutely will save a penny and a dollar. But what could you have done with the same amount of energy focused on creating wealth instead? Instead of focusing on saving money you already have, you could focus on making more money.
When your goal is to save, you always end up with less money than when you started. When your goal is to make money, you always end up with more money than when you started.

Search Engine Optimization, Positioning: Is Chasing Google Algorithms Worth It?
Google is the undisputed heavyweight champion of search engines. Most SEO (search engine optimization) companies pitch their tent around Google. Apart from being the king of search engines, unlike Yahoo and MSN, Google does not serve sponsored results on top of its search results, drawing away considerable attention/traffic away from the search results. Hence ranking high with Google is worth all the trouble it takes to get there. Little wonder then, that most SEO revolves round Google. When Google sneezes, the SEO world catches cold. When Google tweaks its search algorithms, SEO experts scamper back to the trenches to gaze at their crystal ball, to figure out what Google is up to.What makes Google tick is simply because they serve the most relevant results for most search engine queries. They do this through their secret formula (algorithms), propounded by eggheads from academia and the industry, to rank sites according to its relevance to the search phrase. To continue to do that, they constantly tweak their magic portion,

Real Estate Postcards: Six Ways to Improve Them
As an agent or broker, you probably already know the benefits of using postcards to market yourself. Postcard marketing — a.k.a. direct mail marketing — is quick, affordable, versatile, and easy to target and test.What you may not know is that you can often improve your postcard marketing results just by making minor adjustments to your approach. Here are seven such adjustments.1. Increase the Value of Your Offer If you're relying on the "free consultation" to motivate your prospects, you need to rethink your approach. The free consultation fails as an offer because it's not really an offer. Your prospects view the consultation as part of your job, not any kind of bonus.The same goes for the comparative market analysis, or CMA. There may have been a time when the consultation and CMA got people excited, but that time has passed.So what do you do?Simple. You offer something unique and valuable in exchange for their response. (Keep in mind "valuable" does not have to mean "expensive.") Wh

Why You Just Can’t Stick to a Budget
Do you know why so many people can’t seem to stick to a budget? It is because the mere fact that they are focusing on ways to spend less causes them to earn less. In order to do a budget, you first have to write down how much money you have coming in. Do you really want to tell the Universe that this number, whatever it is, is the amount of money you are willing to work with?
A budget assumes there is a finite amount of funds coming in, which in actuality, is lack thinking. It assumes there a set amount with which you must conduct your business, support your family, and indulge your whims every once in a while.
With a budget, you set spending caps for each expense category, based on the total amount of revenue you have coming in. You look at each expense carefully to see where you can cut, slash, and eliminate spending altogether. In fact, this is the opposite of what you should be doing if you want to grow your business and increase your personal wealth.
As stated above, lack thinking causes people to earn less. Not only is your energy focused on savin
