You know disruptions keep coming back. You just do not know why.
In half a day we map out your production, your blind spots and your immediate improvement opportunities. Free, on site, with a clear report within one week.
You steer on gut feel, because the data is not there.
You know output is being lost. But you have no hard figures to back the problem up, to prioritise it or to explain it.
Disruptions keep coming back
You fix it, but a week later the same line is down again. The cause stays unclear.
Figures that do not add up
Every shift reports differently. You are never sure whether the numbers you see reflect reality.
Your capacity leaks away without you seeing where
Downtime, changeover times and micro-stops stay under the radar.
Firefighting instead of steering
The day starts with reacting to what went wrong, not with steering on what needs to happen.
Four steps, one concrete report.
Structured, personal and without detours. Within a week you know exactly where the opportunities lie.
Intake & preparation
A short intake about systems, lines and your biggest operational frustration, so that our visit delivers value straight away.
On-site visit
We map out your machinery, data flows and bottlenecks in person. Including conversations on the shop floor, roughly 4 hours.
Smart Factory report
Within one week a clear report: findings, blind spots and concrete quick wins. Concise and usable.
Optional follow-up conversation
Only if there is potential: a conversation to go through the report together and discuss the next steps.
“The first thing the dashboard pointed at was not the machine itself, but a small part of the process. That turned out to be a major disruptor. We solved it ourselves.”Marten Groen · operations manager, CCI · read the story
Not a salesperson, but a specialist who knows factories.
The Quick Scan is carried out by someone who speaks your language. Technically grounded, with experience on the shop floor.
Johannes Wibbens
“In every factory I visit I see different machines, different processes and different bottlenecks. Every situation calls for its own unique solution. With our Quick Scan we show that we genuinely understand your organisation too.”
Half a day of your time. Nothing more.
No preparation, no IT department involved, no machine downtime. This is what we ask of you.
One point of contact
You, or someone responsible for operations, joins us during the visit.
Access to the shop floor
We walk through the factory, look at machines and talk to operators.
Optional: systems
If you have an overview of the software in use (ERP, MES, etc.), bring it along. It can also be done on the spot.
No downtime
Machines keep running. We work around the operation, not through it.
A report you can actually move on with.
We do not tell you what to do. We show what is going on, so that you can back up where output is being lost, what it costs and what the logical first step is.

Illustrative view. Your report describes your lines, your data and your priorities.
Overview of the current situation
Which systems and machines there are, what already generates data and what does not. At a glance you see where the blind spots sit.
The data landscape mapped out
Where the data sits, how it flows and where information falls away. Which machines give no signal, where logging is done by hand, and where data is available but not used.
Bottlenecks and opportunities
Concrete points where insight is missing and what that costs. For example: if downtime recording differs per shift, you cannot compare causes and you keep repeating the same disruption.
Two to three quick wins
Achievable improvements with immediate short-term impact. Such as: insight into actual availability per line, so you can compare shift performance objectively without Excel arguments.
High-level recommendations
A direction for structural performance management in your factory. Usable as a starting point for an investment decision, a conversation inside your organisation, or simply to know where you stand.
