The objective is to build resilient supply processes that balance flexibility, transparency, and long-term security — without unnecessary inventory — ensuring continuity in volatile markets while minimising geopolitical exposure.
CTSM — Cross-Tier Signal Mapping — describes how structural demand misalignment emerges across semiconductor supply chains long before it becomes visible in forecasts.
SourceArc Semi works with selected decision situations where internal demand transparency is structurally unavailable, disclosure is constrained by liability or commercial risk, and decisions still have to be made.
CTSM provides the analytical lens.
The Commitment & Reservation Structure (CRS) translates this lens into a concrete, decision-ready assessment — before the cycle turns into the next shortage or oversupply.
