Your MES team, extended—without the overhead of hiring

Your in-house MES team knows your processes inside out. That expertise is irreplaceable — and it's exactly why they're always the ones called when something needs fixing, something needs integrating, or something needs to be done by Friday.

The work doesn't slow down. The team stays the same size. And the gap between what needs doing and what can actually get done quietly grows.

There's a model built for exactly this situation.

"You're not renting a pair of hands. You're plugging into a network of 190 consultants and 810+ completed projects."

Andea's MES Team Augmentation service places our consultants alongside your team at whatever capacity makes sense—from a few hours a week to multiple full-time equivalents. The key difference: you get not just that consultant's knowledge, but the collective intelligence of Andea's entire practice behind every decision they make.

It's a managed service. Andea handles project oversight, quality assurance, and knowledge transfer. You focus on outcomes, not on managing a contractor relationship.


Five reasons manufacturers choose this model

1. Collective knowledge, not just one consultant
   Every Andea consultant brings not only their own experience but ongoing access to best practices and lessons learned across our entire portfolio. Your team benefits from 810+ projects worth of institutional knowledge.
2. Flexible capacity—scale up or down in weeks
   Start at ¼ FTE per month for targeted support. Scale to multiple consultants for a major rollout. Dial back when the peak passes. No recruitment cycles, no notice periods, no wasted bench time.
3. Best practices built in from day one
   Andea consultants work within a structured methodology refined across aerospace, automotive, and industrial equipment clients. Your team inherits proven standards—not improvised approaches.
4. Managed service, not body leasing
   Andea owns the delivery accountability. That means project management, quality control, and internal peer review on our side—not an additional management burden on yours.
5. Your team grows stronger, not dependent
   The goal is genuine knowledge transfer. As Andea consultants work alongside your engineers, your in-house capability grows.

Whether you're navigating a platform migration, resolving accumulated technical debt, or simply need MES expertise—this model is built for exactly that kind of sustained, high-value collaboration.
