Requested Maintenance

To facilitate seamless operations, the company identified an immediate need for the modification of existing walkways. The primary concern was that the present design was inadvertently guiding customers and drivers in incorrect directions.

Decision Driver and Timing

The critical factor driving the decision was ensuring efficient movement and safety within the facility. With incorrect pathways, there's a heightened risk of operational disruptions, safety concerns, and inefficiencies. Thus, there was a pressing need to delineate specific areas, construct new walk paths, and ensure that navigation within the plant became intuitive for both customers and drivers.

Scope of Work

• Detailed assessment of the current walkway layout.
• Removal of redundant walkways spanning 1000 sq. ft.
• Design and implementation of new floor line striping to guide movement.
