Factory (Re) Design and Layout

Whether a commissioning of a new factory, the rearranging of an existing manufacturing layout, or the extension of facilities after acquisition, we have demonstrable design and project management experience to ensure that things go smoothly in the redesign of your facility. Even today, after 30 years of lean being a hot topic, lots of businesses suffer from poor layout, resulting in excessive work in progress, extended leadtimes and prolonged working capital exposure. That’s why people come to us. We have designed and implemented new production facilities, based on flow, in aircraft engine manufacture, automotive components, medical equipment, and packaging, to name a few. We have worked in hundreds of businesses to create cellular layouts, working with the local teams to affect the changes. We have designed warehouses to achieve the best inventory turns and to ensure pick and ship efficiencies were maximised. So, when it comes to layouts, we know a thing or two. Whether an entire facility or a single manufacturing cell, we have the unique credentials to support your vision.
