Why it mattered

New manufacturing capacity is already in the customer’s plans before the building is closed in. The first production run is the date that counts.

The challenge

An aerospace supplier expanded a plant to build fuselage and wing structures for a new aircraft program, on dates set by the airframe manufacturer.

Deep machine foundations, overhead cranes and quality certifications all lay on the critical path.

How we kept it on course

Our approach, phase by phase.

The same disciplined sequence we bring to every engagement, shaped around what this project needed most.

PHASE 01PHASE 02PHASE 03PHASE 04
PHASE 01Overlap with care

Building areas handed over in phases so tool installation could begin well before overall completion.

PHASE 02Watch outside dependencies

Utility service, permits and equipment deliveries tracked as critical external milestones.

PHASE 03Measure, don’t estimate

Earned value and installed-quantity progress replaced opinion with evidence.

PHASE 04Plan the first run

Commissioning and production ramp-up scheduled with operations from the start.

What changed

The difference we made

Measured the only way that matters: did the project land where we said it would.

Result 01Program date met

First-article inspection passed on the airframe maker’s date.

Result 02Foundations first

Machine foundations were sequenced ahead of the building enclosure.

Result 03Certification scheduled

Quality approvals were part of the schedule logic from the first baseline.
