The increasing adoption of AI, internet of things, and 5G is significantly driving Engineering Research and Development (ER&D) investments in the semiconductor industry. Fueled by advances in semiconductor technologies, such as smaller node sizes, innovative materials, AI-enabled chipsets, custom-designed chips, advanced packaging techniques, and emerging chip architectures, companies are also harnessing generative AI to enhance semiconductor engineering. However, semiconductor enterprises face challenges in meeting evolving customer demands and managing increased complexities in the value chain due to design changes and complex validation procedures.
Providers in semiconductor engineering play a crucial role in addressing these needs by supporting fabless companies, integrated device manufacturers, electronic design automation tool providers, and foundries.
In this research, we assess 18 leading providers associated with semiconductor engineering, along with sourcing considerations for enterprises. This assessment is based on RFI responses from providers, interactions with their semiconductor engineering leadership team, client reference checks, and an ongoing analysis of the engineering services market.
