The mission
Framing the transformation of a production line through the selection of automated solutions to achieve:
- Increased production capacity
- Sustainable OPEX reduction
- Enhanced safety for operating conditions
The challenges
- How to align strategic ambitions with market growth and operational needs?
- How to frame accurate CAPEX and justify payback with limited technical specifications?
- How to bring the operations team on board to drive innovative solutions?
The approach
- Conduct a comprehensive diagnostic to identify non-value-added activities, quality issues, and manual operations
- Select candidate operations for automation within the existing process
- Develop automation scenarios assessing benefits and impacts on production planning
- Define CAPEX and technical requirements with suppliers
The impacts
- 15% OPEX reduction of the production line
- 20% increase in production capacities
