Retrofit Design and Modernization Solutions

RETROFITTING AND OPTIMIZING EXISTING OPERATIONS WITH MAVENEER

At Maveneer, we excel at retrofitting existing operations to unlock capacity, streamline processes, and integrate new technology for business growth and alignment with strategy—all while keeping operations fully functional. Our phased approach ensures that retrofits are performed with minimal disruption, allowing businesses to maintain throughput during the upgrade.

A warehouse retrofit includes assessing current systems, upgrading control systems, enhancing storage capacity, and integrating advanced automation for improved efficiency. This process is tailored to meet the client’s operational goals and is implemented without major interruptions to ongoing operations.

KEY FEATURES OF MAVENEER’S RETROFITTING SOLUTIONS

Phased Implementation

We execute retrofits in carefully planned phases to ensure that critical operations continue seamlessly. Projects often involve multiple interventions, from equipment upgrades to workflow redesigns, with each phase designed to minimize downtime.

Capacity Expansion & Optimization

Our retrofits focus on maximizing space utilization and increasing storage capacity through strategic redesigns and space optimization techniques. This may include reconfiguring racking systems or integrating goods-to-person automation to boost throughput.

Advanced Automation Integration

Maveneer specializes in adding automation systems such as robotics, goods-to-person solutions, and conveyor upgrades that can be integrated with existing equipment and controls.

Risk Mitigation & Minimal Downtime

Our strategic planning ensures that upgrades are implemented without disrupting critical operations. We mitigate risks by carefully scheduling interventions and testing systems in parallel with ongoing operations.

Expert Project Management

Our experienced project managers guide every phase of the retrofit, ensuring smooth execution and precise coordination between all teams and stakeholders. We handle everything from initial assessments to final commissioning, ensuring a successful outcome.

Elite Team

Led by Maveneer’s team of seasoned engineers, hands-on operators, scientists, developers, problem solvers, and leaders.

RETROFIT DESIGN AND MODERNIZATION: OUR PROCESS

STEP 1

Consultation and Operations Review: We assess your current systems and operations to understand challenges and opportunities.

STEP 2

Peak Operations Analysis: We analyze peak times to schedule retrofits during non-peak periods, minimizing disruptions.

STEP 3

Opportunity Identification and Phased Planning: We identify opportunities for improvement and develop a phased plan to work around your operations.

STEP 4

System Assessment: We evaluate existing equipment and systems to determine the best upgrades and replacements.

STEP 5

Phased Implementation: Retrofitting is done in carefully planned phases, ensuring minimal downtime.

STEP 6

Testing and Go-Live: We test new systems alongside existing operations to ensure seamless integration before going live.

STEP 7

MavenSHIELD Ongoing Support: After go-live, our MavenSHIELD™ program provides ongoing maintenance and support to ensure long-term system performance.

RESULTS FROM OUR CLIENT

The Problem: Our client (a leading Canadian retailer with a complex distribution network) faced challenges in increasing storage capacity and optimizing throughput. Their largest facilities were already operating at full capacity, and the requirements identified the retrofit implementation was required without disrupting ongoing operations.

The Solution: Maveneer provided a complete conceptual redesign and a phased implementation plan across their Canadian network of facilities to increase storage capacity, optimize inventory flow, and integrate automation—all while ensuring ongoing operations remained unaffected. The project involved multiple facility expansions, goods-to-person systems, and advanced conveyance upgrades.
