Navigate Factory Transitions with Confidence

Factory transitions are pivotal moments that impact revenue, product margins, and business performance.

You need a solution for:

  • Documenting all of your undocumented know-how
  • Defining your last good state
  • Ramping up quickly with a new team
  • Quickly triaging new issues that arise

The stakes are high, and the process is complex. The truth? Most teams lack the expertise to navigate factory moves smoothly, and even seasoned professionals encounter unforeseen challenges in today’s evolving manufacturing landscape.

To help you succeed, we’ve developed a comprehensive expert guide to factory transitions. Authored by Anna-Katrina Shedletsky and featuring insights from industry leaders Andre Neumann-Lorek and Bill Carter-Giannini, this resource equips you with the strategies and tools you need to move your manufacturing operations with precision and confidence.

In this guide you will learn how to:

 

  • Baseline your last best state: Capture your “last best state” at Site 1 before you start dismantling it to enable faster bringup on the other side
  • Maintain the secrecy you need to get the most out of all partners: Learn how to use third-party tools to move confidently while maintaining secrecy and protecting sensitive data from your CM. 
  • Quickly bring up and qualify Site 2: Learn strategies to ensure a smooth and efficient transition, from parallel operations to validating the new site, without disrupting your supply chain.

Skip multiple bring-up builds – make it one control run.

Avoid losing your intellectual property and know-how, suffering a slow ramp, putting materials in the wrong place, or missing revenue targets.
