An integrated circuit (IC) chip package assembly apparatus and techniques for assembling IC chip packages are described. For example, a techniques for fabricating an IC package include (A) determining a first package assembly yield (PAY) across a first die pool comprising a first plurality of dies having a performance criteria within a first predefined range; (B) determining a second PAY across a second die pool comprising a second plurality of dies having a performance criteria within a second predefined range of performance criteria that is different than the first predefined range of performance criteria, the second plurality of dies comprising a portion of the first plurality of dies; and (C) generating a final assembly sequence in response to analyzing the first and second PAYs, the final assembly sequence comprising rules for combining dies in accordance with obtaining a higher of the first PAY and the second PAY.
