About this listen
In high-mix, low-volume manufacturing, documentation directly affects performance. Engineering drawings and BOMs serve as production tools, not background files. If they’re unclear or inaccurate, they slow teams down and shrink margin.
Strong documentation supports profitability by reducing rework and preventing delays. When the build process is clearly documented, teams spend less time clarifying and more time producing. That clarity creates margin, especially in HMLV environments where variation and pace leave little room for error.
In this episode, Amtech CEO Jay Patel explains how better documentation leads to faster throughput and fewer mistakes. He shares how work instructions connect engineering intent to operator execution, and why change management needs to be deliberate, not reactive.
