Project Management & Implementation
Successfully managing projects means understanding processes and providing excellent knowledge of project management structures. We at POLARIXPARTNER know our craft. Opportunity and risk management is an essential part of our work.
A realistic implementation planning, including control and operational execution, form the basis of our work. In addition to "classic" project management, we also take on interim management tasks. Our crisis-experienced interim managers take the wheel when your project flings and put it back on track.
Our managers work in a strategic manner, focused on implementation and with a doer mentality to handle complex requirements. Whether project management and controlling, project auditing or interim management - in addition to outstanding expertise and excellent skills - our team brings empathy, a high level of communicative skills and absolute loyalty to your goals.

Examples of production & operations management projects
Project
Cost analysis and implementation of cost savings of a slat transmission for a passenger aircraft of a Tier 1 aviation supplier.
THE CHALLENGE
The supplier had a strong production increase. However, some manufacturing steps are not compatible with mass production. The actual costs are higher than the target sales price. In addition, the customer increased the pressure to reduce costs because of the increase in the purchase quantity.
POLARIXPARTNER was commissioned with a 3-month analysis of the current situation. After 15 months, cost savings should be implemented. More than 50 employees from cross-functional teams including development, purchasing, cost engineering, controlling and production were involved.
Solution
OUR APPROACH
- Cost analysis of all parts and assembly
- Workshops to identify cost saving opportunities (internally and with suppliers)
- Evaluation of ideas in the team
- Manufacturing analysis for in-house and supplier production in order to identify further potential
- Production tests with new tools and processes to save on manufacturing costs
- Negotiations with suppliers in order to unleash potential
OUR RESULTS
- 50 % Cost saving potential
- 30 % of the potential already implemented after 6 months
- Further measures to exploit the full potential over 9 months
Project
Risk analysis and delivery assurance of a wide-bodied aircraft for an international aviation group.
THE CHALLENGE
There was a lack of consistent planning transparency during production. Supplier management was difficult, driven by a complete collapse in order planning. The integration of a risk culture in times of crisis proved to be almost impossible. There was also a suboptimal project organization structure.
Solution
OUR APPROACH
- Implementation of an improved governance structure in the areas of production and industrialization
- Establishment of an automated planning cockpit through collaborative platforms
- Creation of a supplier risk management gap analysis and implementation of a supplier review board
- Development of a training concept for risk management for the production area
- Needs analysis and audit of project organization
OUR RESULTS
- 20% time savings in the operational production units
- Creation of a planning cockpit
