Berfore the grand solution you need to know what the problem is.
The first step in any project or design is understanding
The end result is a jig or fixture, a nice product design or even an automated process.
Still, how do you get to the end result??
Well, you have to take a step back and look from a different perspective. Easier said than done right? You are usually swamped with day-to-day tasks and details that there is not enough time to take a step back.
That’s what I offer, a fresh perspective. An outside view to point out the obvious, and not so obvious. I will join you in the trenches of day-to-day operations to quickly learn what you do and where there is room for improvement. I am confident in my experience and knowledge of the make-industry to find the right solution for you.

Problem
You're too busy to find the root cause of your inefficiencies. There are great ideas for improvement but you are not sure what the impact is on the rest of the process.
-
My Process
I methodically map your workflows, ideas or processes, interviewing key people to create a complete picture. No detail is overlooked.
-
Your Outcome
A comprehensive snapshot of your process. A big picture view of the upstream and downstreams dependencies. The first step to making your operations more efficient.
Your Roadmap to a Solution.
Now that you have a clear picture on what is happening in your process or product it is time to think of solutions. Do want to develop solutions with your own team, great!
Do you want to leverage our expertise and passion for manufacturing?
I can offer following paths to success:
-
Path 1 (Products & Small Projects)
For smaller projects, I have network of designers and fabricators to bring your ideas to life. From initial design and simulation to final fabrication, I manage the entire process to deliver a tangible product.
-
Path 2 (Process Automation)
For full-scale automation I act as your single point of contact, ensuring the big picture isn't lost. As the point of contact my focus is making sure you understand every aspect. I bring in trusted partners, such as S4 Integration, to implement the solution, providing you with all the benefits of a large company's expertise.
The Right Team for Every Project.
It is impossible to be good at everything. Never mind the capacity to handle many different projects and topics. That is why I work in collaboration with other companies and freelancers to fill the capacity and skills gap.
