Benchmarking:
Whilst providing complete confidentiality, our wide experience of assembly and process automation enables us to benchmark your business processes with respect to those of a similar nature. When carrying out an automation process review, we typically evaluate your existing production setup, including manning levels, productivity and efficiencies. We then advise the improvements that will increase productivity and how these can be integrated into your business.
Our automation review process empowers our clients to make highly informed, cost-saving decisions that deliver results.
Taking a considered approach to researching and understanding where your business is currently and where you need it to be in the future, the automation process review delivers pragmatic recommendations that are tailored to your specific requirements, budgets and timescales. Also, as an independent automation consultant, you can rest-assured that our recommendations will be completely unbiased with your success as our sole focus.
Optimisation:
With many companies having reduced manning and employees working hard to keep up, the time to think clearly and practically about progress can be hard to find. A targeted automation review, from independent specialists, provides a clear view of what can be done to reduce waste, improve quality and increase productivity.
Working with your people at the ‘sharp end’, our consultants watch, listen, question and cajole to really understand what might be going wrong. Application of our experience to these issues often means implementation of practical solutions which eliminate problems at the source.
Conflict Resolution:
If you’ve had a recent installation that is not meeting the specifications agreed and you’ve tried to remedy with no success, then our Automation Conflict Resolution and Automation Expert Witness services may be the answer. For truly independent, clear advice on how best to deal with your installation, Automa8 has the experience and expertise to help you. We may be able to assist you in avoiding litigation and speed up resolution. Ideally working with both yourselves and the supplier, Automa8 will liaise between both parties, seeking an agreed solution in an acceptable, practical and commercial manner.
Planning:
Unfamiliarity with processes means planning is difficult. Many companies simply don’t have the in-house skills to plan and promote change. Managers know what they want to achieve; they just don’t have the time available. We can help. With clear options, budgets and timescales, we work with you to plan the best route forward. We will save you money and time by implementing those things you know need to be done, but haven’t had the resource to do.
Resource:
As a result of cut-backs and streamlining, many of today’s businesses cannot justify employing specific personnel for forward planning. Our clients benefit by utilising our services only when they need it – delivering a cost-saving on salaries and associated costs of full-time employment. Our bespoke service means that we can help your business as much or as little as you require, providing the expertise and motivation only when you need it.
