Technical Assessment

Technical assessment includes an analysis of your business technology level in comparison to the best available technology on the market.  We also give a lifecycle estimate for each process stage.  Capacity and bottleneck analyses are a vital part of the technical assessment. The analysis is based on existing performance reports and our observations and measurements taken during the mill visit.

We provide professional recommendations that will achieve a more efficient and the best possible process flow for your operations.

Material utilization & yield analysis is an important part of the technical assessment.  This analysis covers the main products such as sawmill lumber and by-products such as chips, sawdust and bark.  We benchmark the sawmill yield against references and best practices.

Analysis of maintenance routines and maintenance CAPEX is also included in the technical assessment.  Thus, providing you with a comprehensive understanding of the level and quality of maintenance routines compared to reference mills.

We provide our professional opinion regarding potential process improvements.

OEE Assessments

OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) determines the percentage of production uptime.  This is a practical tool to measure and improve your manufacturing processes.

This assessment includes a downtime availability analysis, which is used to analyze its key root causes.

The performance analysis covers short production disturbances and speed of the manufacturing process.

Quality analysis focuses on product quality and percentage of rejects where we analyze root causes of non-conforming products.

Based on the deliverables, we benchmark your manufacturing OEE scores to international references and best practices.  In the end, we will provide you with easy-to-follow and comprehensive recommendations for the improvement of your manufacturing processes.
