15 years in the industry.
Not as spectators. As actors.
We have seen factories reorganize, flows become automated, and professions evolve under the constraints of time, cost, and now sovereignty. And we have drawn a conviction from this: CAPEX projects are the heart of the battle.
An industrial CAPEX tolerates neither approximation nor delay: every choice impacts years of performance. That is why we have made it our specialty.
