Plant Design & Expansion

Design the plant around how work needs to flow.

From greenfield facilities to brownfield expansion, Gemba translates demand, process, material movement, equipment and operating requirements into a plant that can run efficiently and scale with less friction.

A layout decision becomes an operating condition.

  • 05Safety and access conflicts

What May Be Underneath

Process sequence and adjacency are working against flow.
Storage, aisles, utilities or future capacity were not planned together.
Layout and process flow are creating waiting or cross-movement.
Brownfield changes are being added without a whole-flow view.
People, equipment and material routes compete for the same space.

What we design.

Greenfield Plant Design

Translate process, capacity and future growth into a complete operating layout.

Brownfield Redesign & Expansion

Reconfigure an operating facility while protecting continuity and future capacity.

Layout & Material Flow

Improve adjacency, travel, storage, staging and movement.

Capacity & Utilities Planning

Align equipment, utilities, support areas and capacity requirements.

Implementation Support

Carry layout decisions through detailed planning and execution coordination.

Design from the operation outward.

Start with demand, process and capacity. Then determine equipment, material movement, people and safety before fixing the layout — with future expansion built in.
