Industrial & Manufacturing

Why it matters

Industrial companies in Egypt and the Gulf carry heavy fixed assets through volatile conditions. Energy and raw material costs move with policy and currency, imported spares and inputs depend on access to foreign exchange, and demand from construction and infrastructure rises and falls with public spending. Saudi Arabia's industrial and localization programs are creating new demand for local manufacturing, while older plants in Egypt often run below capacity with aging equipment and an unclear path back to growth.

Our expertise

Our industrial work starts with an honest company and plant review. We assess plants that have lost ground and build the plan to bring them back to growth, covering market position, product mix, capacity use and the investment required. We facilitate corporate strategy for manufacturing groups through structured workshops that end in a balanced scorecard, an organization structure and an execution plan. For engineering and contracting firms, we produce the business plan and financial model that lenders, partners and boards need to see.

Where operations are the constraint, we bring the plant-floor methods we use across the region: value-stream mapping, OEE measurement, TPM and Six Sigma problem solving. The aim is to separate what the market is doing to you from what the plant is doing to itself. Once that is clear, capital can go to the lines, products and markets where it is most likely to change the result, and management gets a short list of indicators to run the business against.
