The Start of Something New

As the flowers bloom and the frost fades away, the world becomes green with life again. Spring is a time for new growth. With that in mind, here are some ways that RemTech can help your new project “grow.”

Making a Plan

Every successful project must start with good planning. As you start your planning process, there are three areas that must be considered for every project; the scope, the schedule, and the budget. Each of these three aspects of your plan directly impact the other two. Finding a balance between the budget, schedule, and scope is an essential component to your planning process.

Setting a Goal

Having achievable and realistic goals for your project is vital to your success. Attainable goals can provide you with measurable feedback as well as increasing morale amongst your team. At RemTech, we can help you develop specialized goals that fit your team and project. After setting your goals, RemTech works alongside your team to achieve those goals.

Building a Team

Having the right people on your team is a determining factor in the success of your project. At RemTech, our consultants work as a part of your team, bringing a variety of skills and experiences that you need. Our consultants can also be your Project Managers, allowing you to focus on the regular operations in your organization.

Spring is a time for new growth, new ideas, and new projects. Let RemTech help you start something new this season.

Time for an Upgrade

Upgrading your equipment can be a daunting challenge. There are many aspects to take into account, from defining the requirements, finding the right equipment, training on that equipment all the way to ensuring the equipment works in your process and facility. Luckily, RemTech has the resources and expertise to take care of the unknown.

Procurement 

When it’s time to upgrade your equipment or if you need new equipment for a new project, RemTech consultants can lead the way for you. We will work with your organization to define your goals and vision to provide the best options for you and your operation. We will find right equipment that you need for the best price.

Documentation 

After we procure the equipment, our consultants provide the needed documents to validate and operate the equipment correctly. Some of those documents include, but not limited to:

  • User Requirements Specifications
  • Factory Acceptance Testing Documentation
  • Site Acceptance Testing Documentation
  • Installation Qualification
  • Operational Qualification
  • Standard Operating Procedures
  • Preventative Maintenance Documentation
  • Process Qualification

Optimized Layout

One of the most important aspects of upgrading your equipment is often overlooked. As part of our procurement process, we analyze your facility to determine the most efficient and effective layout possible. We also consider the specifications of your facility, ensuring that the utilities and size of the facility can support the needed equipment. In cases where a facility may need upgrades, RemTech also offers Design and Construction Management services to execute the required work on your behalf.

The process of updating your equipment can bring lots of unknowns. That’s why it’s so important to work with an organization that has experience and understanding. Let RemTech guide you through the upgrade process so you won’t have to fear the unknowns.

Systems Over Goals

As the new year approaches, many of us will be looking ahead and making New Year’s resolutions. Maybe we want to learn something new, or be healthier, or spend more time with the ones we love. New Year’s provides us with an opportunity to set new goals and start out on the right foot. But how can we reach those goals?

We have to put a system in place to guide us to our goal. If you want to be healthier, you have to set a diet and exercise plan. If you want to learn a new skill, you have to make time to practice and study. When we have a good system to follow, it will lead us to the goals we have set.

The same is true in our businesses and organizations. It is important to set goals for your organization and your team. Whether you are setting sales goals, production goals, project goals, or some other goal, you need a system in place to reach those goals. That’s where RemTech comes in.

We also specialize in construction management, facility layout, and equipment qualification and validation. If one of your goals is to improve you facilities or equipment, then RemTech has the knowledge and expertise that you need.

While goals are an important part of leading your organization, having workable systems in place is a necessary step to reaching those goals. This New Year, let RemTech focus on your systems and let those systems lead you to your goals.

Mind the Gap

When boarding a train in London, it is common to see warning signs along the train platform. Many of these sign say “mind the gap” as a warning to watch your step as you board and be aware of the space between the train and the platform. In your organization, it is a helpful reminder to “mind the gap” with your team and bridge the space between your current abilities and what you need to meet your goals.

 

Your team is made up of a variety of personalities and skill sets. Even so, there is the potential for a “gap” to develop. Undertaking a new project can show what areas your team may be lacking. That is where RemTech comes in. Our consultants bring a wide variety of expertise to your team to fill any gaps in your skill set. By working with a consultant, there is not a need to hire a permanent employee, especially if that position is only needed for the short term. RemTech consultants can fill the gap in your team to get the job done right.

 

Another area where gaps can develop is existing processes. The industry is constantly changing and expanding and with that come changed and expanded regulations. Your process that met with standards before, may not meet those standards anymore. A gap has developed. To combat this, RemTech offers operational and business process audits. These audits evaluate your current processes to ensure you are meeting standards and regulations.

 

Through staff augmentation and process audits, RemTech can build up the confidence in your processes and projects. Being prepared for gaps that develop is the best way to handle these situations and RemTech is uniquely suited to help you “mind the gap.”

Game Changer

Babe Ruth, Tiger Woods, Mohamed Ali, Dale Earnhardt. Throughout the world of sports there have been individuals that have changed the way we play the game. Players that have been so extraordinary that they redefine our expectations.

What could change the game for your industry? Adopting a serialization process into your existing manufacturing processes could be the thing that sets you apart from your competitors.

 

When you add a serialization system to your manufacturing process you are adding a needed layer of security. Serialization allows an organization to monitor and track their products through every stage of manufacturing. Keeping a detailed record of information like; where your material comes from, which line the product was made on, and where that product ended up, is a valuable resource for your organization.

 

Consumers want to be sure that the products they get are authentic and trustworthy. By utilizing serial numbers, you help to reduce the amount of counterfeit and fraudulent products in the market.

 

Another benefit of serialization is easing the recall process. Unfortunately, mistakes happen to everyone. But when you are utilizing a serialization system, it is easy to track where and when a problem started. Serialization allows you to quickly resolve the issue with a minimal effect to your production.

 

Serialization can set you apart from your competition and set your organization up as a trusted manufacturer. At RemTech, we specialize in serialization and developing a process that works for you. Partnering with RemTech could be the game changer you’ve been looking for. Contact us today to get started.
