UN BUNDLE
Our factory in Belgium was looking at alternative technologies for our most significant quality issue. Louis, typical of the Flemish, was an exceptional manufacturing engineer and requested $10,000 for a test laser. Great Idea
Six weeks later I am in Belgium and asked Louis " Where is the laser? - Not here yet!
Six Weeks later I am in Belgium again and asked Louis "Where is the Laser" - We sent it to Switzerland first." Louis answered. 'We need to see if it could be automated to the production line." Oh no
We complicated a very direct test with a second mission at the same time. It prevented our basic understanding of the possibilities for almost four months and triple the expense. Louis original idea did work
