At JLS Engineering Concepts, our Industrial Engineering and Design Engineering – Material Handling services are designed to help manufacturing and industrial operations improve efficiency, reduce waste, and optimize production flow. As part of our expanded Architectural & Engineering Drafting Solutions, we offer a comprehensive approach that combines technical expertise in AutoCAD drafting with deep knowledge of industrial systems, lean principles, and material transport design.

• We begin with precise facility layout and optimization services, developing detailed AutoCAD drawings for assembly areas, sub-assemblies, warehousing, and testing environments. Our team applies lean manufacturing principles to assess workflows, balance lines, and eliminate non-value-added movement—ensuring space and resource efficiency throughout the facility.

• Material flow analysis is at the core of what we do. We evaluate existing processes and model future-state scenarios to design efficient material delivery routes. This includes strategic placement of workstations, equipment, and storage areas to reduce handling time and improve safety. We also perform route mapping and travel time studies to support both manual and automated movement within the plant.

• Our team specializes in the integration of transport systems, including Automated Fork Trucks (AFTs), manual tuggers, forklifts, and line-side delivery carts. We provide layout design for dock-to-line and point-of-use material delivery systems that support every phase of your production whether for prototype, pre-production, or full-scale manufacturing.

• In addition to system design, we deliver complete engineering documentation and drafting services. This includes 2D and 3D CAD drawings for tools, fixtures, racks, and utility drops—prepared to meet both engineering review requirements and on-site implementation needs.

• Our industrial engineering consulting services include conducting time studies, value stream mapping, and bottleneck analysis. We provide data-driven insights to improve productivity and support cross-functional collaboration with operations, quality, and maintenance teams.

• JLS Engineering Concepts proudly serves clients in the automotive, aerospace, government, logistics, and medical sectors. With over 25 years of hands-on experience, we have successfully supported major OEMs such as GM, Ford, and Stellantis. Our commitment is to deliver scalable, high-performance solutions that enhance the operational success of every project we undertake.
