Transforming Manufacturing: Quantzig’s Capacity Optimization Boosts Asset Utilization by 65%
A leading industrial manufacturer based in the USA struggled with optimizing its complex manufacturing operations. With over 10 production sites and hundreds of machines, the client faced frequent breakdowns and replacements due to inefficient equipment utilization—either underuse or overload. Additionally, the diverse product range made demand aggregation and line planning difficult, as these processes relied heavily on manual workflows.
Through this collaboration, the client achieved significant improvements. Overhead costs dropped by 20% by reducing equipment failures and enhancing asset utilization. Asset overutilization decreased by 65%, ensuring balanced equipment usage across all manufacturing sites. Additionally, production output increased by 34%, streamlining operations and minimizing inefficiencies. These enhancements not only recovered substantial operational losses but also laid the groundwork for long-term manufacturing excellence.
