Communication is one of the most important success factors in the context of international project management. Communications in turn is influenced through different factors, including culture, organization and staff. That is why we, at EWP, rely on an intercultural project team in Europe, who specializes on these differing factors.
For the execution of tool projects our customers can rely on a project manager to assist them. The project manager functions as the coordinator between our customers and our plant in China and manages deadlines as well as the release of the series for the given project. This enables short communication channels and close customer-supplier relationships during the project.
PROJECT PLAN
The Project plan from the perspective of the customer:
- Inquiry of the customer about the dates for the product or article
- Mutual analysis of tasks between the customer and the project manager of EWP (Specifications, Standards, and Dates, etc.)
- The creation of a 3D-drawing based on the article data/ prototype (sample)
- Clearance of the 3D-data by the customer
- Construction of a tool concept by our tool maker in China
- Clearance of the tool concept by the customer
- Production of the tool in China
- Sampling, Surveying, and Sample approval by the customer
- Necessary Change loops
- Subsequent sampling and subsequent surveying
- Approval of the tool by the customer
- Production of the parts in China, or delivery of the tool to Europe
We support and attend to our customers from beginning to end. By providing progress reviews at periodically set times, we keep our customers updated. These reviews include the exact construction- or completion status, with a detailed breakdown of the development and production steps. This way we guarantee adherence to delivery dates and transparency towards our customers.
