Expert help for manufacturing
and industrial companies.

I offer expert consulting, project management and hands-on support to companies that want to improve processes, increase efficiency, introduce new technologies or solve complex technical and operational problems. I am not about theoretical advice. I focus on solutions that work in real operations.

1. Production optimisation & lean manufacturing

Analysis of the current state of production, identifying bottlenecks, eliminating waste, setting priorities, standardising procedures and introducing measurable improvements based on Lean and Kaizen principles.

  • higher production efficiency and lower scrap rate
  • better workplace organisation and more stable deadlines
  • clearer responsibilities and a culture of continuous improvement

2. Cost savings & productivity increase

I help find where a company is losing money: poor work organisation, unnecessary waiting, unsuitable technological procedures, unused capacity or repeated complaints.

  • lower operating costs
  • better use of people and machines
  • reducing repeated errors with a real impact on the bottom line

3. Introducing new technologies & automation

Experience deploying technologies such as CNC grinding, polishing, superfinishing, micro-welding, brush (tampon) plating, laboratory bath analyses and special surface-treatment procedures. Design and management of automation for production and administrative processes.

  • technical assessment of technology and investment suitability
  • design of the deployment process and communication with suppliers
  • fine-tuning the process in operation, reducing the risk of a bad investment

4. AI implementation in operations & management

Practical deployment of AI in manufacturing and technical companies: preparing quotations, technical documentation, data analysis, internal knowledge bases and decision support. I build custom AI agents to support both production and administration.

  • time savings in administration and faster preparation of documents
  • AI agents for specific tasks in production and management
  • connecting operational experience with digital tools

5. Technical consulting in surface treatment

I specialise in hard chrome plating, internal (bore) chrome plating, galvanic processes, technological fixtures, quality control and solving surface defects.

  • assessment of technological feasibility
  • design of fixtures and procedures, solving defects and complaints
  • support during technical negotiations with the customer

6. Crisis & operations management

I help in situations where production is falling behind, people lack clear priorities, errors keep recurring, communication between departments does not work or operations need to be stabilised quickly.

  • quick orientation in the problem and setting priorities
  • connecting production, technology, quality and management
  • focus on a concrete result

7. Project management & new projects for partners

Leading projects from brief to result: technology deployment, production relocations, operation expansions and launching new production projects for business partners.

  • managing the project, deadlines, costs and risks
  • experience with large production relocations (Rakovník → Olomouc)
  • coordinating production, design, quality and suppliers

8. Connecting companies & brokering

Over more than 20 years of practice I have built a network of around 1000 contacts among manufacturing companies in the Czech Republic – from small sole traders to enterprises with more than 1000 employees. Long-term personal relationships mean faster and more open communication.

  • brokering cooperation, subcontracting and capacity
  • matching demand with the right supplier
  • a personal recommendation instead of a cold contact

Write me a few sentences about your operation and the problem you are solving. Together we will go through where cooperation could make sense.
