Human Nutritional
Valencia, California
FSG assisted a California vitamin manufacturing company in the design development of new facilities for manufacturing, warehousing and distribution. These facilities replaced existing outdated facilities and improved productivity and customer responsiveness. To assist in the analysis, a computer simulation model was developed and used to replicate hundreds of possible operating scenarios. Decisions were made from this model that influenced equipment purchases, staffing and operations. |

Home Products
Dallas, Texas
FSG completed an extensive analysis for a leading manufacturer of commercial and home lighting. Under previous management, work rules had been relaxed and productivity had slipped. Primary goals were to reduce work-in-process (WIP), product delivery times, and customer complaints. FSG studied the flow of the product and information through the plant, as well as the methods of |
| assembly. By implementing a pull-style manufacturing system, the client was able to achieve a 25% reduction of the work force, reduce customer-related complaints to one per month from five per week and reduce WIP by a factor of four. |

Optoelectronics
Billerica, Massachusetts
The challenge for FSG and its team members was to increase plant capacity from one unit/day to several hundred units/day. FSG created the design requirements through interviews with R&D and manufacturing personnel. Included were a series of flexible Class 10,000 clean rooms to handle |
 |
| the changing needs of the client. The resulting retrofit was a 150,000 square foot building designed around the manufacturing process flow, enabling a smooth transition from R&D to production-scale manufacturing. This facility was designed, constructed and commissioned on a Hyper-track, client driven schedule. |
