Defining a precise process to assemble rugged servers for the military, machine learning, or other computing systems through automated tooling — making each phase seamlessly easy to follow for all personnel involved in the work.

Reason

Assembling complex rugged servers from scratch requires coordinating across multiple teams to achieve high-quality, efficient results. Without a clear plan and design, the process can become stressful for the teams and — what is worse — result in low quality and poor efficiency.

First and Foremost

The complex process of assembling a rugged server must be divided into small, independent sub-processes that are interconnected phase by phase to achieve the final result.

Tools

The entire process can be communicated through different technologies — from something as simple as Excel or Word documentation for small companies, to more advanced online platforms for large-scale assembly projects — so that technicians can be shown, in simple and fast terms, how to put things together in whichever sub-process they are working on.

Results

Delivering high-quality rugged servers with 3.4 defects per million opportunities — what is known as Six Sigma — in a fast-paced environment.
