MANUFACTURED PRODUCTS &
MANUFACTURING PROCESS SYSTEMS


Dr. Wright's Primary Objective in Manufactured Products & Manufacturing Process Due Diligence is to ensure that the Facility and Operational Risks have been correctly assessed and minimized through proper planning and design. His unique Quick Question? Quick Answer! program may provide you with the just the answers you need to make a knowledgeable and timely business decision!

The evaluation of the actual design and proposed implementation of manufacturing processes in so-called technical projects is of the utmost importance in the technical system analysis step of technical due diligence. Recall that technical projects are those that utilize new or emerging technologies and are, in general, the most difficult to evaluate, the most risky to implement, and potentially among the most profitable. A general marketplace disorder tends to occur in these industries after the introduction of revolutionary new products that are technology driven as the following forces struggle to equilibrate.
  • Imploding life cycles of these new products and processes.
  • Changes in product demand as these new "technical" products that have the potential to revolutionize the industry enter the marketplace.
  • Realization and evaluation of the performance, features and cost of the new "technical" products by the market.
This equilibration process, in turn, places special restraints and considerations on the technical due diligence process in order to make it as accurate and precise as possible.

A brief summary of his Qualifications and Experiences in this field are briefly outlined below.

  • Designed and constructed microcomputer hardware, instrumentation and software systems to remotely control Manufacturing Processes. Some of these Systems operate in Extreme Radiative, Thermal, and Chemical Environments.
  • Used "Fault Tree Analysis" to aid in the Safe Design of Manufacturing, Chemical and Nuclear Processes.
  • Performed Thermodynamic Calculations required for Chemical Process Design.
  • Designed Manufacturing Processes.
  • Designed Industrial WasteWater Treatment & Disposal Systems that are Integrated with Manufacturing Trains.
  • Helped modify operational activities of Clients in the U.S., Mexico, Indonesia and Soviet Union in order to bring them into compliance with International, Federal, Republic and State Environmental Statutes.
  • Assessed and mitigated the Process, Safety, Environmental and Business Risk from Oil & Gas Operations, Manufacturing, Waste Treatment & Disposal, and other industrial operations.
  • Worked in the Weapons Planning Group of the Director's Office that was responsible for Systems Analysis, Monitoring and Oversight of Laboratory Programs involving Nuclear-Weapon Design and Testing.
  • Member of the Management Committee that evaluated proposals and monitored projects for a $17 million/year internal R&D budget.
Successful experiences such as those listed above require a solid yet diverse technical background. More detail on Dr. Wright's technical background in experimental physical chemistry, computational chemistry, environmental chemistry, and radiochemistry can be found at the following links.
