THE WORK / CONAX TECHNOLOGIES

PRECISION MANUFACTURING
Getting the requirements right. Before production.
Aligning sales and manufacturing to address costly calibration errors, using the capabilities already available in the business.
01 / The challenge
Critical details.
Lost in the handoff.
Calibration requirements lived in manual sales-order notes. Production worked from manufacturing orders that never carried those details. The gap only surfaced at shipping — triggering rework, remakes and delays.
02 / The work
Find the gap.
Design the connection.
The engagement mapped the sales processes and the order-to-production handoff, identified the root cause, and designed structured requirement capture and manufacturing routing around the ERP capabilities already in the business.
03 / The process design
Clarity before production.
Bringing calibration requirements into the manufacturing workflow before missing information becomes costly rework.

04 / The deliverables
What the engagement delivered.
- A process map of the sales-to-production handoff
- Defined sales-order calibration categories
- A phased roadmap for manufacturing routing
- Direction for product configuration and data-led upstream calibration
- A path toward B2B ordering and standardized sales processes
The projected opportunity.
PROJECTED ANNUAL OPPORTUNITY
Up to
$1.5M
Potential annual savings from reduced waste and rework.
80%+
Target reduction in quality escapes
Manufacturing issues that pass through the process without being caught.
A foundation for B2B ordering and more standardized sales processes.
Projected benefits from the December 2024 readout. The cost baseline was anecdotal and requires validation. Realized results remain unconfirmed.
