The line runs. Margin shouldn’t leak.

Whetstone embeds senior operators on the plant floor and across the supply chain to lift throughput, cut waste and free working capital — so you get more out of the assets you already own. Business-side operations: we never override engineering or safety controls.

⚙  Business-side operations. We optimize throughput, cost and supply — never engineering or safety controls.
Where we create value

Where plant margin quietly slips away.

Between raw material and shipped product, margin leaks in downtime, waste and trapped inventory. We find the constraints and clear them.

01

Throughput & OEE

Find and remove the constraints throttling output and utilization.

02

Cost & Waste

Take out structural cost, scrap and rework without breaking quality.

03

Inventory & Working Capital

Release cash trapped in inventory and WIP.

04

Supply Chain & Procurement

Tighten sourcing, logistics and supplier performance.

05

Systems & Data

Turn MES/ERP data into decisions the floor can act on.

How we engage

Senior, discreet, floor-aware.

We work alongside your plant, ops and supply-chain leaders — never overriding engineering or safety controls — diagnose fast, fix in the flow of production, and hand back a business that runs clean.

01

Diagnose

Weeks, not months. We find the real constraints on throughput and cost.

02

Fix in the flow

Change made on the floor with your teams — minimal disruption to production.

03

Hand back clean

Durable improvement your team owns, with the plumbing running quietly underneath.
