Once the primary manufacturing site in Mexico was meeting production volume our team worked to launch the Eastern European manufacturing site into production by transferring and adapting best practices, processes and lessons learned. The Eastern European site, while having less lines and a smaller physical footprint was able to surpass production output of the primary Mexico site, in less time. When required by the program to support increasing global production demands we established 2 additional manufacturing sites in mainland China.
