Use case 05 · Mechanisation & implementation
Post-implementation: getting a faltering system back on track
“We have invested millions in mechanisation or automation, but the promised speed, costs and results fail to materialise. Instead of calm, there is unrest on the floor; processes stall, debts have mounted and liquidity — sometimes continuity — comes under pressure.”
Who it is for
Companies with start-up problems after a major investment (new factory or line, site consolidation, acquisition) or an automation project that has hit obstacles — automated internal transport, robotics, planning tools. Sectors: food/fresh, manufacturing industry, logistics/DC, process industry.
Solution
We are brought in when mechanisation does not deliver what was promised. No thick report, but action on the floor along four axes: capacity, process, technology & IT, and culture & leadership. We tackle the real causes — technology that does not fit the processes, employees who do not trust the way of working, departments steering on their own optimum.
Outcome
Within about three months, control and stabilisation on the floor — more calm, clarity and confidence — and within six months a lasting improvement that is embedded in your procedures, with control over processes, costs, capacity and delivery reliability.
From practice
At a fresh food processor , a new build worth hundreds of millions did not deliver what was promised. By restoring processes, rhythm and collaboration, the preparation department was above standard within nineteen weeks. No temporary firefighting, but an improvement culture with ownership.
