- Mike Budde, President
Situation:
Budde’s aerospace customer requested that they
take on more work. To stay competitive and take on the additional work to support their defense clients, Budde needed to increase their machine capacity and improve the required first article reporting. Budde needed help refining their inspection documentation and reporting processes, increasing data availability, and strengthening their documentation speed and efficiency.
Solution:
FastLane supported Budde by providing tools to help reduce bottlenecks in their reporting and production processes using the Ohio Defense Manufacturing Community (ODMC) grant. The ODMC grant helped Budde to increase their capacity to meet the demand by supporting the commissioning and training for a new 5-axis machine. FastLane also helped improve access to and availability of data for the inspection reporting process though specialized software. As a result, Budde has been able to take on more DoD work. This saves Budde’s DoD customer time and money, leads to more refined designs, improving the product quality, and enhancing their supply chain.
