Assessing a Client's Facilities and Processes for opportunities for reducing Costs and improving Efficiency and Flexibility. Managing a Project on behalf of a Client to implement an agreed solution within the Cost and Timing Constraints specified.

We are experts in reviewing and optimising your existing manufacturing processes, or designing and developing a manufacturing process for a new product or assembly, using simultaneous engineering techniques to provide a detailed functional specification and implementation plan.

Our aim of any project we undertake is to minimise both the Recurring Costs (RC) and Non-Recurring Costs (NRC) of each process so that the most cost effective solution is used, optimising the ROI.

S J Ainsworth Consultancy Ltd has a proven track record in optimising the design of products and assemblies for manufacture. Initially, this involves using value analysis techniques to reduce the part count and to ensure minimal tooling is required for the assembly.

We will also carry out tolerance analysis to ensure that the tolerances specified are both necessary and achievable, and we will develop a location strategy to ensure that the datums and locations used are relevant to the function of the final assembly, and allow the dimensional integrity of theproduct to be analysed from first principles.
