Layout Planning

Efficient use of space is critical to the success of any production environment. We support our clients in translating complex manufacturing requirements into intelligent, future-ready layout concepts. Whether it’s the initial design of a greenfield site or the reconfiguration of existing facilities, we deliver layout solutions that balance functionality, flexibility, and cost-efficiency.

Our services in layout planning include:

  • Concept development for greenfield and brownfield production sites
  • Optimization of factory layouts to support throughput, safety, and scalability
  • Space management strategies aligned with evolving product and process requirements
  • Integration of cleanrooms, measurement areas, and specialized environments
  • Media supply, infrastructure alignment, and equipment positioning
  • Compliance-ready emergency and safety layout planning
  • Coordination across facility planning, logistics, and engineering disciplines

We approach layout planning as a strategic lever—not just a drawing on paper, but a blueprint for production success.
