Capacity Improvement
Designing and building technical processes, procedures, and training are a specialty of ours. For example, we helped to quadruple the efficiency of a power supply test line by designing new and efficient test jigs. We have doubled the throughput of an optical test system for ONTs, including the ability to test more varieties than before. We have brought up new telco switching systems used to test thousands of units per year, on time and on budget.
Configuration Optimization
After learning of a customer's needs, we changed their original switch network configuration to dedicate individual processor frames for a dedicated purposes rather than shared processing, greatly improving both test efficiency while reducing production downtime. More thorough testing could also be accomplished, as well as easier maintenance.
Process Design
Through the use of a re-ordered production line, the set-up of secondary suppliers, and some minor addition of equipment, we improved the speed of manufacture for one product to just one-fifth (20%) of its original assembly & testing time. Our clients are intelligent and highly experienced with their own processes, but when combined with out external insight and further experience, can benefit from surprisingly large gains in productivity while costs actually drop.
Emergency Preparedness
The best way to restore operations due to a network failure, is to avoid the failure in the first place. Ransom-ware, viruses, and cracking your network can have awful consequences. We've helped multiple clients invoke multi-pronged approaches to plan for adverse network or process breakdowns, from power outages and fires, to equipment breakdown and conductive dust contamination. With proper planning and awareness, adverse events should be very few and far between, and there should be a plan of action to invoke quickly if something adverse does happen.
