Manufacturing Project Management
Project Management is one of the Equipment Manufacturers biggest challenges. Managing a project to ensure optimal profitability when each order is unique, challenges the industrial supply chain. Industrial projects require a custom combination of materials and labor, in-house and outsourced items, and a blend of standard and specially designed components. Industrial Project Management also requires the tracking of each stage of the project, from engineering design and development, through material acquisition, across manufacturing process and often beyond delivery to installation and service.
Is your project completely unique each and every time or do you require a hybrid approach where you can handle both activity-based planning, and traditional manufacturing resource planning? Do you experience high levels of uncertainty inherent in all equipment manufacturing projects; cost overruns, lengthy delays and expensive errors; high degree of rework or rescheduling to meet customer requirement? If the answer is yes, you need effective manufacturing project management. Without it, you're left guessing, you've increased your risk, and you're most likely affecting project and company profitability.
