Background
ITS has proved its expertise and experience in accompanying start-up companies like Diptech, kornit Digital, Nur Macroprinters and Scan Master. We enabled the start-up company to focus on its core capabilities. We manage the production planning and control, procurement, warehousing and production. We hired their senior employees, improved engineering and production processes and set up well-structured pricing mechanism. We served as a professional body specializing in engineering and production to maximize the current business potential of companies usually run by development and marketing leaders.
The method
Stage A – assessment and a feasibility study Assessing the maturity of the machine, the technology, the engineering and the logistics.
Stage B – preparing plans for improvement/upgrade In a start-up company – a structured process of NPI (New Product Introduction) In a company undergoing a crisis period – product assembling and testing, a program to mature the product and the supporting systems.
Stage C – stabilizing the machine as a mature product Dealing with engineering problems – blueprints, improving BOM (Bill of Materials), configuration of control, technologies and production processes. Building the production and control infrasructure, establishing production planning and control systems. Preparing for serial production. Pricing the product.
Stage D – serial production and preparation of product and production portfolios.
Stage E – Preparing a cost reduction road map Preparing cost reduction process both in engineering and technology and in streamlining procurement and production.
Stage F – Exit In case production continues in ITS: A continual supply of machines according to the production agreement. In case production does not continue in ITS: Preparing and transferring the production portfolio/kits.
