ABOUT

Two people who have been on both sides of the table.

Semitrical exists because the information needed to negotiate well with a chip supplier is already public, and almost nobody on the buying side has the time to read it.

What we will and will not claim.

Procurement teams have been sold dashboards before. So it is worth being exact about what this is.

Everything traces to a document

Every figure comes from a filing, a transcript or a public register, and carries the date it was checked. If a claim cannot be traced, it does not get made.

We do not forecast

Nothing here predicts a shortage, a price move or an event. It reads the position a supplier is already in, from what they have already published.

We say when we do not know

Where a company does not publish a figure, or an ownership record cannot be followed, the answer is “this cannot be seen here” — not a guess dressed as a finding.
