A global OEM's body interior engineers were spending only 40% of their time engineering.

  • Part-level cost and weight tracking
  • BoM validation and prototype order
  • Established regular governance to surface program bottlenecks and priority areas
  • Launch quality tracking and build support

Engineering support

  • Agreed targets with engineering

  • Owned change management
  • Worked with the wider supply base to author deviation documentation
