The Challenge:

Motion faced a significant challenge due to the consolidation of three separate businesses into a single facility. This consolidation created a need to reorganize and compress the storage of spare parts to accommodate three new dust-free testing and assembly rooms. The primary objective was to achieve this within a smaller footprint while ensuring that ongoing operations remained uninterrupted throughout the transition.

The Solution:

To address these requirements, Heighton conducted a comprehensive design and engineering review. The team analysed the existing space and operational needs, then developed a detailed plan to optimise the storage layout. By carefully assessing the best methods for reconfiguration, Heighton was able to propose an approach that minimized disruption to the company's operational output. This solution ensured that Motion could maintain its productivity levels while the new testing and assembly areas were being created.

The Outcome

The consolidation of the three businesses was successfully completed within the required time frame, aligning with the lease expiration of the other facilities. As a result, Motion was able to commence its dust-free assembly and testing operations earlier than initially planned. This early start not only facilitated a smoother transition but also allowed the company to capitalize on its new capabilities sooner, enhancing operational efficiency and supporting future growth.
