Asset positioning — which line, which mould equipment, which SKU.
In a multi-plant group, the highest-margin SKU often runs on the second-best-suited line. Asset positioning fixes that.
What this service does.
In a multi-plant group, the highest-margin SKU often runs on the second-best-suited line. Asset positioning fixes that. We map every SKU to every line, every mould set to every furnace, every campaign to every hot end — and re-allocate to maximise total group EBITDA.
Why plants choose this service.
EBITDA at group scale
For a 30-plant operator, a 2% asset utilisation lift across the network is $50M+ EBITDA.
Operator-led S&OP
S&OP × hot-end constraints — not S&OP optimised in a spreadsheet ignoring the floor.
Multi-site benchmarking
Apples-to-apples comparison across plants: pack rate, OEE, percent-pack, pack-to-melt, changeover time.
What you get.
How it runs.
Data ingest
12 months of order book, line capability, mould inventory, KPI history across plants.
Modelling
SKU-to-line allocation modelled with hot-end constraints, mould availability, customer service levels.
Decision workshop
Group leadership chooses the allocation; tradeoffs made explicit.
Implementation
12-month rollout with monthly tracking against EBITDA target.
Questions, answered.
Multi-plant is where the value is. Single-plant we usually fold into a hot-end audit.
Often paired with.

Independent audit of IS machines, forehearth, hot-end coating, ware handling and pack-to-melt KPIs.
Forming Audit
Section timing, mould equipment, NNPB/BB/PB process control and defect taxonomy linked to root cause.
