Dependable productivity to meet your most critical challenges
Maximizing yields. Reducing Costs. Optimizing equipment. Satisfying customers. All while getting to market quickly and responding to new opportunities. For semiconductor and electronics manufacturers, these are the critical challenges.

And with global competition, demands for ever-higher quality, and the new generation of 300mm wafers, these challenges are greater than ever. Optimizing every aspect of your plant’s operations is not an option. It’s a necessity. That is why so many manufacturers in semiconductor and related industries choose PROMIS from Brooks.

Robust applications for flexible plant control
Flexible control. It’s the most fundamental requirement of any manufacturing software system. To achieve it, you need a comprehensive set of applications that fills the gap between your ERP systems all the way to your equipment controllers. It’s imperative that these applications provide a balance of capabilities throughout the factory, as robust on the business side as they are on the automation side.

That’s exactly the balanced solution that PROMIS manufacturing software provides. PROMIS software is an integrated suite of applications that combines planning, scheduling, costing, document control, SPC, production and performance management in one comprehensive manufacturing system. You can expand and tailor PROMIS software to your needs by choosing from a broad set of optional modules and other Brooks advanced applications. Furthermore you can easily integrate PROMIS software with in-house and leading 3rd party software via standard APIs, Oracle ODS and our out-of-the-box Integration Framework. The result: a tightly integrated, full plant solution that puts you in real-time control of your most critical processes and workflows. This integration means fewer data entries, reduced duplication, fewer errors, more consistent data, tighter version control, optimum equipment utilization, better plant management, and even a completely paperless work environment for those facilities that need it.

Ready-to-run out of the box
For semiconductor manufacturers, each minute of production is worth thousands of dollars in revenue. Getting to market before your competition and sustaining dependable production can make or break a management team. PROMIS software is the MES application that gets you into volume production in the least amount of time. Our robust capabilities provide comprehensive out-of-the-box solutions, so you have less work to do.

PROMIS software includes ready-to-use applications for defining, managing, automating, and controlling shop floor processes. Our powerful process definition applications and reusable components mean faster process definition and qualification. Business rules are already built-in. You just plug it in and start defining your factory and process flows. PROMIS software has enabled many leading semiconductor and electronics plants to get manufacturing information systems up and running in three months or less. With PROMIS manufacturing applications, you’ll be able to ramp up quickly and sustain dependable productivity.
