Our Solutions

Reveal How Your Operation Really Works

How

We use podcast-style interviews with your employees to capture real knowledge about processes, bottlenecks, and daily challenges.

Using our RAGTAG framework, we map every recurring task by importance, time, and tools used.

The process exposes inefficiencies, gaps in process management, and weak collaboration with suppliers.

Why?

Most extruders rely on disconnected systems and informal knowledge sharing. By mapping the real workflow, we uncover hidden causes of extrusion defects, downtime, and productivity losses.


Results That Matter for Extruders

Clear, actionable process maps that show how work actually happens.

Visibility into gaps between departments and suppliers that lead to lost productivity and poor results.

A foundation for targeted improvements in training, equipment use, and process reliability.
