    Manufacturing facilities

    The company includes the following manufacturing groups: Assembly and Plastic Molding. The Assembly group is responsible for assembling the motorcycles with purchased and manufactured goods. The Plastic Molding group is responsible for manufacture of all plastic parts used in the assembly area.

    Motorcycle manufacturing

    The parts for the product assembly are picked from the warehouse and staged at the correct workstation by a warehouse operator for each production order.

    Plastic manufacturing

    Plastic parts are molded using dyes that create multiple parts at once. The parts are machined in the same production process to remove excess plastic and add additional holes for assembly. Excess plastic is recycled back into the feedstock of the same color plastic chips for use in the molding process.

    Metal parts

    Raw metal parts are purchased fully machined but without primer or paint. The parts are subcontracted to a vendor for primer and paint based upon the color requirements.

    Facility

    The company has a single warehouse that supports both the assembly and plastic manufacturing areas. The warehouse consists of three aisles with 15 bins and three shelves. The facility has no Wi-Fi capacity but has hardwired terminal stations throughout the assembly production line.

    Transactions are currently completed by office staff. Raw materials transfer must support capacity constraints for paint and primer.
