Michael
W. Baughman,
CPM, CPIM
Outsourcing and Supply Chain Executive
Consultant,
ICR Enterprises, LLC
(925) 518-7664;
mike@icrprocess.com
Supply Chain leadership and training
experience and graduated from the
prestigious California Polytechnic
University, San Luis Obispo, in
Engineering in 1981. Mike began his
career in “the early days” of Silicon
Valley working for high-tech pioneers:
Apple Computer, Atari, and Sun
Microsystems in the early ‘80s. His
executive level experience began in 1995
and since then has held Director of
supply management positions with
Watkins-Johnson, KLA-Tencor, and Lam
Research. In addition to his
“real-world” expertise in outsourcing,
global sourcing, supply chain
reengineering, Mike has developed
training based on his 20+ years of
background in contract writing,
negotiation, management, arbitration and
even contractual legal battles.
At Watkins-Johnson, Palo Alto, CA a
($400M/yr.) manufacturer of Microwave
Communications and Test Equipment Mike
managed both internal and outsourced
supply chain operations including
operations in Palo Alto, CA, Bangkok,
Thailand, Manila, Philippines, and
Shanghi, China. Mike implemented long
term enterprise wide contracts with all
outsource providers.
With KLA-Tencor a ($1.5B/yr.)
manufacturer of semiconductor inspection
equipment, Mike was Director of
Materials for the Reticule Division,
managing Purchasing, Planning, and
Inventory Control for NPI and
Production. Mike helped implement Lean
Manufacturing both internally and with
suppliers, and outsourced 30% of
manufacturing to local tier one
suppliers during this period.
Mike was Director of Outsourcing
Supplier Management with Lam Research a
($1.5B) company during the period where
Lam re-engineered the materials
organization and outsourced 90% of
manufacturing. Inventory turns
increased over 250% to over 7, margin
increased from 34% to 51%, and
manufacturing output capability
increased 300% with 50% less factory
space.
Mike began his career designing and
installing high volume manufacturing and
warehousing facilities. During this
time Mike designed and installed over 3
million sq. ft. including the games
facilities of Atari in Limerick and
Raheen, Ireland (1983), the Macintosh
automated facility in Fremont, CA (1985)
and the Sun Microsystems Milpitas, CA
automated facility that was on the cover
of Modern Materials Handling (Aug.
87).
As Sun Microsystems began to outsource
non-core operations, Mike transitioned
from Engineering Management into
Outsourcing Supplier Management to
create new outsource processes and
manage outsourced global operations for
Input / Output Devices, Fab - PCBs,
Software Duplication, and OEM PCBA
products. Mike was the architect of the
outsource RFQ process and assisted in
the development of the “Total Cost of
Ownership” scorecard process still in
use by Sun today.
Mike is
currently a training and consulting
associate of ICR Enterprises.

Bernie Jenkins has over
26 years of marketing ,
business and product
development experience
in the semiconductor
market. Bernie began his
career in Silicon Valley
in 1980 working for such
giants as US Philips (Signetics),
TRW-LSI Products
Division, Fairchild
Semiconductor, Cadence
Design Systems, Actel
Corporation and National
Semiconductor where he
spent over 20 years in
Business Development,
Senior Technical
Marketing, and Program
and Product Line
Management positions.
As a Marine NCO, Bernie
was selected for the
Naval Enlisted
Scientific Education
Program or NESEP. After
a grueling ten weeks at
the Naval Academy
Preparatory School,
Bernie attended Purdue
University, graduating
with a BS in Electrical
Engineering in 1976 and
commissioned a
2nd Lieutenant in the
USMC where he served in
various Supply,
Contracting, Finance and
Logistics Staff Officer
capacities for over 18
years on both active
duty and the reserves.
During his time at
National Bernie was
instrumental in
initiating a high growth
rate market doubling the
revenue of a P&L over
$60M with a PBT in
excess of over 25%.
This accomplishment also
included restructuring
the pro-forma P&L
database, developing
new cost models to
reflect the true cost of
manufacturing to
management giving them
the highest visibility
into the operation.
As the ASIC Front End
Product Line Manager,
Bernie helped innovate
outsourcing models,
today, that are very
common in the
semiconductor and
fabless semiconductor
industries between wafer
fabs, assembly and test,
EDA service vendors
(technology standard
cell libraries, design
methodologies and design
services) etc. thus
creating the concept of
a" virtual product line”
with a high return on
investment with minimum
human assets invested.
National was a common
name in many early
outsourcing and supply
chain management success
stories.
As the business
development and foundry
program manager Bernie
was responsible for
initiating the
development of
National’s and the
industry’s most
advanced, lowest power,
lowest noise BiCMOS
process (ABiC IV) in the
industry. This 15 GHz Ft
process had transistor
characteristics ahead of
the industry of the day.
This project became a
joint business venture
between the Department
of Defense, key
contactors that included
Unisys and Hughes
Aircraft Company (now
Boeing Aircraft). This
technology later led to
the formation of a new
division at National,
the Wireless Division
that latter had revenues
that exceeded $200 M per
year.
As a senior product
marketing manager at
National, Bernie has
launched several very
successful products into
the military/aerospace
market segment which
included every ASIC
technology from 2.0 um
down to .18 um CMOS.
While at Actel Bernie
launched the first truly
radiation hardenened
FPGA , the RTAX-S Family
of designed-for-space
FPGAs with Error
Detection and Correction
(EDAC) SRAM. Electronic
Design Magazine rated
the RTAX-S as one of the
Top 100 Products for
2003.
