Supplier Launch Readiness Assessment

OEMs can ensure a launch with no surprises from their suppliers by evaluating their readiness. We visit the supplier and engage with the program team to audit their program execution with a proven audit methodology. We "evaluate wide" and "recommend deep" if the findings suggest opportunity for improvement.

Knowledge in the Light of Experience

Experience makes all the difference for these audits. Red/Yellow/Green charts can camouflage issues. The checklist on most launches that end up going sideways claim all the appropriate tools are created and steps have been taken. It takes someone with enough experience to sense danger during the audit to know where to dig.

So, we go through a process of discovery, interviews to assess the credibility of the plan, and drill deep when weaknesses are found. From there, either the OEM or the supplier can choose to make the course corrections themselves or engage us for the next phase with a service from our suite of Program Management Recovery options.
