AIR GP

Executive advisory and manufacturing transformation. From the boardroom to the shop floor.

Engagement Packages

Eleven ways we work with owners and operators.

For owners, founders, and C-suite operators.

Executive Advisory

Strategic coaching, succession planning, and M&A support delivered by operators who've sat in the chair.

  • Monthly strategy sessions
  • Board prep & investor narratives
  • M&A and exit planning
  • Confidential 1:1 access
See the business the way a buyer would.

Operational Assessments

Forensic audits and gap analysis across operations, finance, and people — with a prioritized action plan.

  • On-site or virtual deep-dive
  • P&L and cost-structure review
  • Risk and compliance map
  • 30/60/90-day roadmap
Top-to-bottom overhaul of how you make things.

Manufacturing Transformation

End-to-end redesign of manufacturing workflows — from intake to ship — built around throughput, quality, and margin.

  • Value-stream mapping
  • Lean & cell-based redesign
  • Capex prioritization
  • Implementation oversight
One playbook, offshore and domestic.

International Manufacturing Integration

Bring offshore production and U.S. operations onto a shared playbook for quality, costing, and supply chain.

  • Vendor & partner vetting
  • Quality systems alignment
  • Logistics and duty strategy
  • Onsite kickoffs
Pull waste out of the floor without buying new equipment.

Production Optimization

Layout redesign, SOP standardization, and removal of workflow drag — measured in cycle time and yield.

  • Layout & flow redesign
  • SOPs and visual management
  • Bottleneck analysis
  • KPI dashboards
Stop betting the schedule on one source.

Supply Chain Resilience

Dual-sourcing, inventory positioning, and supplier risk frameworks that survive a disruption instead of reacting to it.

  • Supplier risk mapping
  • Dual-source & nearshoring plans
  • Safety-stock & reorder strategy
  • Landed-cost & lead-time modeling
A quality system inspectors and customers trust.

Quality Systems Implementation

Build or repair a documented quality management system — ISO-aligned, audit-ready, and matched to what your customers actually require.

  • ISO 9001 / customer-specific alignment
  • Document control & SOPs
  • PPAP / FAI & inspection plans
  • CAPA & audit readiness
Uptime you plan for, not pray for.

Plant Reliability & Maintenance

Move from reactive firefighting to a reliability-centered maintenance program measured in OEE, MTBF, and unplanned downtime.

  • Criticality & failure-mode analysis
  • Preventive & predictive maintenance plans
  • CMMS setup & spare-parts strategy
  • OEE & downtime reporting
Structure the company before it structures you.

The Enterprise Systems Mainframe

Our startup and structuring framework — corporate shield, profit-first capital logistics, and a pre-engineered exit built in from day one.

  • Multi-tiered entity & liability shield
  • Profit-first cash flow architecture
  • MASA governance + SOWA execution model
  • Pre-engineered exit documentation
The Mainframe, taken down to the shop floor.

Mainframe for Fabricators & Manufacturers

The Enterprise Systems Mainframe applied to fab shops and manufacturers — equipment, processes, quality, and capacity built into the structure.

  • Everything in the Enterprise Systems Mainframe
  • Equipment, capacity & capex planning
  • Process, routing & SOP architecture
  • Quality system and traceability from day one
Add locations, ventures, and assets without cross-contamination.

Mainframe for Expanding Businesses

Horizontal expansion of the Mainframe — new operating entities, real estate holdings, and ventures bolted onto one parent without spreading risk.

  • Modular entity expansion under one parent
  • Real estate & asset holding structure
  • Shared services vs. standalone P&L design
  • Roll-up and asset-sale readiness
