How it works
Three ways I work with manufacturers and fabricators. Which one fits depends on what the factory walk turns up, so most people start there rather than picking from this page
I start with process, not technology. Most of the waste I find isn't a tech problem. It's a process built for a smaller, simpler business that nobody has had time to redraw. Automation comes after the process is right, not instead of it.
Services
01/ Operations Audit
I find where the factory is leaking throughput, quality or cost, and hand you a ranked, costed plan to fix it.
02/ Implementation
I put the changes in alongside your team, on your floor, until they hold.
03/ Operational Support
A fractional Operations Director, a day or two a week, for businesses that need the capability in the building rather than a project.
Not sure which of these you need?
Most people aren't, and that's fine, because you don't have to decide from this page. Send me the one problem that's bugging you most, in a couple of lines. If I can help, I'll come and walk the floor, and which of these three fits falls out of what I find. You don't need to pick a service. We decide that after the factory walk.
Tell me one problem.
One operational problem in your business that's been sitting unfixed because nobody's had the time to get to it. A couple of lines on what's going wrong and what it's costing you is plenty to start. If I can help, I'll book a factory walk, spend 90 minutes on your floor, and give you a written summary of how I'd approach it. Free, whether or not we work together after that.
