Context and objectives

This world leader in frozen food, focused on operational performance and on optimising its investments, operates in a context of pressure on investment capacity. One of the flagship projects of its industrial plan concerns a European site.

The aim is to design a highly innovative sorting station, with a double objective: de-risk the innovation and lock in the system's future performance, while reducing the project's cost through a Design to Value approach. Deadlines are short, with findings presented and then validated within a few months.
