Not my real name. But every Malaysian factory office has an Ah Hock โ the one who knows how things really work.
I've been that guy for 15+ years.
Where my parts go
๐ฌ Semiconductor
My customers provide supply-chain solutions to A*ML, L*M R***, A**lied M**erials โ the machines that make every chip in your phone. And I provide supply-chain solutions to my customers. That's the tier I work at.
โ๏ธ Aerospace
Our customers supply Airbus and Boeing directly. One tier away from an aircraft, "roughly correct" does not exist.
If my insight survives at that tier,
it will survive your office.
What AI changed for me
Nobody in manufacturing taught me this. The AI advice out there is written by tech people, for tech people. So I became the translator.
And here's the real secret: there is no standard method.
High volume, high mix, OEM, tier-1 โ the right way to price, report and negotiate depends on what YOUR business is. That's what I teach: diagnose first, then customize.
The Ah Hock rules
- Only publish what I've run on real work
- Real numbers โ nothing invented
- No customer names, ever
- No jargon โ mamak-table English only
- For office staff, never for programmers
Why the cartoon?
I still work in the industry. Who I am doesn't matter โ what works does.
The guy in the blue polo is me. He's also you.
