Production
Most of our businesses achieve revenue in under three years and that means they need to produce a tangible product or provide useable code. To do that, we need to define specifications, set up control charts, identify quality control and process control procedures, order raw materials and ship finished products, and much more.
We start, on the day the business is formed, considering manufacturing and production. The ability to not just manufacture, but manufacture within specifications, on time and at a low cost needs to be integrated into all of our decisions on research, intellectual property, marketing, financing, etc.
