PILOT-TO-PRODUCTION TRANSITION ARCHITECTURE

Scale-Up Stabilization
Operational Execution Architecture Service — Non-Licensed (Not Engineering / Not EPC / Not Project Management)

What Is Pilot-to-Production Transition Architecture?

Pilot-to-Production Transition Architecture is the operational execution architecture required to prevent collapse when moving from prototype, pilot, or low-rate production into sustained volume.

It does not re-design the product.
It defines how the production system must operate so volume does not destroy stability.

Most pilot lines succeed because:

  • Variance is manually absorbed by heroes

  • Decisions are immediate and informal

  • Workarounds hide structural flaws

  • Quality containment is ad hoc

At volume, those mechanisms fail. This service exposes and replaces them with enforceable operating architecture.

Why This Is Needed

Common failure conditions:

  • Ramp plans assumed linear scaling

  • Early success masked constraint/quality/decision failures

  • Staffing increased faster than control systems

  • Supplier variability amplified instability

  • Engineering change churn destabilized execution

Why Transition Architecture Matters

Transition architecture determines:

  • Whether scale-up produces output or chaos

  • Whether defects propagate or are contained

  • Whether decisions resolve fast enough to prevent cascading failures

  • Whether partners/customers see credible delivery

How TJEG Performs the Architecture

  1. Transition Fault-Line Identification
    Identification of mechanisms that will fail at volume:

  • constraint behavior

  • quality propagation

  • decision latency

  • interface breakdowns

  • supplier variability coupling

  1. Ramp Gate Design
    Design of enforced criteria for:

  • when scaling is allowed

  • what controls must exist first

  • what evidence is required

  1. Control System Installation Blueprint
    Definition of:

  • cadence, escalation, exception handling

  • containment triggers and stop rules

  • WIP boundaries and release logic

  1. Interface Hardening
    Definition of enforceable handoffs between:

  • engineering / quality / operations / supply chain

What This Delivers

  • Pilot-to-volume transition fault-line map

  • Ramp gate criteria and evidence requirements

  • Stabilization-first ramp sequence

  • Interface control rules (handoff/ownership/escalation)

  • Variance suppression architecture for scale-up

Who This Is For

  • Startups and early-commercial manufacturers

  • Energy manufacturing programs with delivery commitments

  • BESS fabrication ramp-ups where partners cannot absorb instability

Engagement Characteristics

  • Designed for early-commercial scale-up risk

  • Architecture-only; operational execution logic

  • Non-licensed; non-financial; non-legal

Cost & Commercial Structure

Typical range: $50,000 – $165,000
Pricing depends on ramp urgency, number of production stages, and partner complexity.
No contingent fees. No equity.

Compliance Boundary

Operational execution architecture only. Not engineering-of-record, not EPC, not PM, not certification.

If pilot success is not translating into stable production, this is the correct engagement.
