Jobid=e2ff7eb98565 (0.0403)

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)
