Aventa is supporting a Technical Due Diligence (TDD) assessment of a new cable manufacturing facility in the Netherland. The assignment focuses on evaluating manufacturing maturity, process stability and operational readiness prior to stable serial production.
Role Objective
Conduct an independent, hands-on Technical Due Diligence assessment of a cable manufacturing plant, with focus on:
- Process robustness
- Long batch stability
- Scrap and downtime drivers
- Equipment reliability
- Staffing and operational readiness
- Deliver a structured, risk-based report including improvement roadmap.
The expert will evaluate:
- Critical Manufacturing Processes
- PE Filling
- Outer Sheath (Extrusion)
- Armouring
Including:
- Parameter control (temperature, pressure, flow, tension, speed)
- Stability over long runs
- Manual interventions
- Start-up scrap
- Rework %
- SPC implementation
- Calibration & maintenance practices
Manufacturing Stability:
- Scrap trends (last 3 months)
- Unplanned stops (frequency/duration/root causes)
- Changeover reproducibility
- OEE drivers
Logistics & Material Handling:
- Internal material flow
- Drum handling practices
- Bottlenecks and damage risks
Organisation & Maintenance:
- Staffing levels per shift
- Operator experience ratio
- Preventive maintenance programme
- Equipment criticality classification
- Power reliability impact
Quality & Data:
- QC plans
- Traceability
- MES/ERP data integrity
- Defect trend analysis
Deliverables:
- Risk register (severity-based)
- Process maturity scoring
- Gap analysis vs cable industry best practice
- Prioritized improvement roadmap
- Final Technical Due Diligence report
Experience required:
- Minimum 10–15 years in industrial manufacturing
- Strong experience in continuous production environments
- Ideally cable manufacturing (HV/MV preferred)
Technical Competencies:
- Deep understanding of extrusion processes
- Long-batch manufacturing stability
- SPC and process control systems
- OEE and downtime analysis
- Root cause analysis (RCA)
- Preventive maintenance systems
- Equipment reliability assessment
Duration
1–2 weeks onsite + reporting phase (approx. 1–2 additional weeks remote)
