Molds Project Management
Project Management
Manufacturing custom injection molds requires great attention and planning. Building an injection mold can take from 4 to 12 weeks, depending on the complexity of the build. During that time, there are specific steps that must occur in an organized and well-conceived manner for the project to move forward. Our project management team will develop a schedule based on the delivery requirements. Defining the scope and setting standards occurs during this planning process. This strategy gives us the information necessary to keep a mold moving in a consistent manner.
Our time calculation includes room for unforeseen issues and time to solve these problems. Using what is known as the Gantt chart allows our team to tracks activities and make time assessments. Each task is reflected by its own bar, and the position and length of this bar reflect start and end dates.

- How long each task is scheduled to last
- Where tasks overlap with other tasks and by how much
- The start and end date of the whole project
- In essence, the Gantt chart shows you what has to be done and when
