This document provides details on a project to standardize the control and naming of assembly fixtures. The project team developed a new assembly and test fixture control procedure, standard work instructions for registering fixtures in the inventory database, and an assembly fixture report. These improvements addressed issues like a lack of standardized naming and control of fixtures, duplicated fixtures in inventory, and time wasted searching for the correct fixture. The project resulted in benefits like faster fixture searches, reduced inventory, and improved on-time shipment.
Building Commissioning, Ongoing Commissioning and quality management using BACSLeonardo ENERGY
Building regulations on energy efficiency and the new technologies result in increasingly complex technical building systems (TBS). This causes quality risks and requires new approaches ensuring operational building performances. The risks are related to all stages of the building: pre-design, design, construction and operations. Quality management (QM), standardised technical monitoring (TM) and the Commissioning Process (Cx) are key in this context.
Building Automation and Controls Systems (BACS) have a special role in delivering building performance. They enable efficient operation and can provide data for quality management services. Due to the technical and organisational complexity of building projects it is important to define a standardised process to effectively carry out assessment services relying on BACS.
The webinar introduces the concept of Technical Monitoring and Commissioning Process as means of quality management, and presents digital tools and regulatory good practices developed with help of the EU-funded QUANTUM project.

Execution - The Discipline of getting things done GMR Group
This book was published in the year 2002 and I had read this book at that time. Revisited and read this book again just to evaluate the context. Even today the context of this book is very relevant.
Too many leaders fool themselves into thinking their companies are well run. They are like the parents in Garrison Keillor’s fictional Lake Wobegon, all of whom think their children are above average. Then the top performers at Lake Wobegon High school arrive at the University of Minnesota or Colgate or Princeton and find out they are average or even below average. Similarly , when corporate leaders start understanding how the GE’s and Emerson Electrics of this world are run- how superbly they get things done- they discover how far they have to go before they become World class in Execution.
Here is the fundamental problem: People think of execution as the tactical side of business, something leaders delegate while thy focus on the perceived “bigger” issues. This idea is completely wrong. Execution is not just tactics—it is a discipline and a system. It has to be built into a company’s strategy, its goals, and its culture. And the leader of the organization must be deeply engaged in it. He can delegate its substance.
We talk to many leaders who fall victim to the gap between promises they’ve made and results their organizations delivered. They frequently tell us they have a problem with accountability—people aren’t doing the things they’re supposed to do to implement a plan. They desperately want to make changes of some kind, but what do they need to change? They don’t know.
Execution is a specific set of behaviors and techniques that companies need to master in order to have competitive advantage.

What are the different opportunities for a VLSI Front end Verification engineer? What career path exists and how to build a career path in Verification of VLSI chip designs?
Sharing my experiences and Career journey as Verification Engineer
Additive Manufacturing (AM) is undergoing a revolution as it moves from the model and tooling shop and onto the factory floor. A growing range of firms are deploying AM to create innovative new products that deliver increased performance in use and which could not be produced conventionally. Here we explore the drivers behind this transition and the increased demands that series production places on AM to deliver predictable, consistent parts. We look at the chains of linked processes and tools that are needed to create an integrated manufacturing process with AM at its heart, and the controls that must be employed to make AM a mainstream manufacturing process.

Time wasting while searching for a fixture.
No accurate information on the data base. about the fixtures characteristics.
Duplicated fixtures. (more inventory)
No unification between the three product lines while searching, designing and controlling a fixture.
The three product lines have an individual process to search , design and control a fixture.
No procedure for the registration of a fixture on our inventory data base.
There is not a procedure to register a fixture on our inventory data base.
