Examples of projects and engagements include, transformation of crafted luxury timepieces, assembled from several hundred parts, all raw materials procured, processed and sub-assembled with utmost care and attention to detail.

Case study:

Transformation of a specialist watchmaker’s supply chain, assembly and delivery of bespoke, limited edition timepieces. Delayed assemblies adversely affecting the delivery of commissioned watches.  Failing and disconnected, planning and scheduling, resulting in growing number of incomplete crafted timepieces. Increasing number of parts not available at required times.  

‍

• Required flows installed for all affected parts, internally and externally supplied and special processes,
• Recovery of all delayed parts to complete delayed assemble, including mechanisms and bespoke bezels,  
• Each part had a recovery plan, exact understanding and correction to flow reducing backlog of parts,
• Assembly time for timepieces restored, with productivity reducing timeline from commission to delivery,
• Bench flows revised, parts storage reducing time away from assembly, turning and milling productivity increased,
• Zero delay restored due to parts availability at point of assembly
