Who is AP2 Industry

Hands-on production experience, not office theory

AP2 Industry is the personal brand of Aleš Procházka – production director, process engineer and process innovator. I help companies improve production processes, introduce new technologies and automation, reduce costs, use AI in operations and solve technically demanding situations. I have worked my way through production from the ground up – through technology, design and people management to complete operations management.

Production optimisation & lean

Eliminating waste, bottlenecks and unnecessary costs. Lean principles and Kaizen that work in real operations.

Technology deployment & automation

From investment assessment through supplier negotiations to fine-tuning new technology directly in production.

AI implementation in operations & management

Practical deployment of AI tools and building AI agents to support production, administration and decision-making.

Project management & leadership

Managing projects, production and teams. Experience leading up to 42 employees and large-scale production relocations.

Technical consulting & surface treatment

Specialising in hard chrome plating, galvanic processes, fixtures, quality and solving surface defects.

Connecting companies & new projects

A network of more than 1000 personal contacts among manufacturers in the Czech Republic – from sole traders to enterprises with 1000+ employees.
