Calculations included determining how many machines were needed, which SMT machines, how they should be placed on the SMT assembly line to ensure the required production cycle, estimating the number of defects for such quantities, etc. The management was satisfied with the technical development of the project and immediately signed the contract. Despite such efficiency, they didn’t start until the end of 2019, or even later to achieve the designed capacity. It turned out that simply connecting all the machines and placing everyone in their positions at the start wasn’t enough. A lot of time, including my work, was occupied by the development phase of mass production, when business processes were established, personnel were trained, and all supply chains were finally established. But in this case, we must pay tribute, everything came to an end: thanks to its production, the company successfully lowered prices and conquered the Ecuadorian market. And the line I calculated for them at that time is still effective.
The second good thing is that the company was able to successfully produce millions of set-top boxes annually. Remembering such cases is always heartening.
To calculate everything correctly, you may need to be a very powerful analyst. Nowadays, do new technologies and new projects make
