When a sausage snack manufacturer experienced catastrophe at one of their production plants, SSOE proved integral to getting them back in production, and with quick results. Noted for its expertise in start-up management, SSOE’s involvement with this project showcased its ability to provide quick response to client crisis situations, whether it be floods, explosions, or product tainting.
With combined expertise in process, packaging, and plant operations, SSOE was retained to coordinate and manage the equipment installation at a co-packer’s facility to enable production start-up. This included obtaining equipment and installation quotations, submitting purchase requisitions as well as installation coordination. The firm also assessed potential manufacturers to determine if they met necessary qualifications to execute the production scope.
SSOE determined the best location within the existing facility to conduct the pickling process, established production timelines, and managed the start-up process. The firm also modified conveyor processes, ink jet coding, and designed a three-step packaging process. In addition, SSOE worked with the co-packer to install a scrubber fan system which pumped caustic feed to neutralize the vinegar and suggested use of sanitary curtains to prevent product tainting. To minimize the disruption of the site’s natural ecosystem, SSOE integrated outdoor tank containment for used brine into its design. Acting on the client’s behalf, SSOE designed a bulk vinegar tank system and coordinated installation to eliminate the need to purchase small totes reducing the plant’s ingredient costs. To minimize costs, SSOE recommended reuse of existing machinery as needed.

SSOE is currently piloting software that puts a copilot engine in Revit. Using Natural Language Processing (NLP) we can prompt Revit activities such as cleaning up parameter data, annotation, dimensions, sheets and then can share and deploy automations to co-workers in different workspaces within a project. Transforms traditional process of scripts >> write the code, execute command upon an SME directing. (see transcript)…
We helped our client visualize and optimize façade design for occupant comfort—long before breaking ground through the use of the Autodesk Forma tool. It allows the designer to rapidly experiment with the building’s geometry and façade design to discover the most suitable form, prioritizing quality of spaces and comfort for end uses, especially in extreme climates (daylighting and …

We found ourselves in need of a more robust tool to enhance resource forecasting and staff assignment capabilities. Instead of waiting for the perfect tool, we’re building it. SSOE’s in-house technology team has developed and piloted a tool that aims to forecast optimal staff mix and duration for new projects against existing workload to better understand capacity and manage…
