Profiling The Production Ramp: Bright and Beautiful From a Manufacturing Perspective

The production ramp up is fast becoming a reality throughout Pratt & Whitney. To learn more about what that means to employees, we are launching the "Profiling the Production Ramp Up" video series, featuring Pratt & Whitney employees from across the enterprise. Whether they work in manufacturing, operations, supply chain management, engineering or quality, their message is the same: "We're ready for the ramp."

In this video, "Bright and Beautiful from a Manufacturing Perspective," Wade Maynard, production readiness manager, Pratt & Whitney North Berwick Parts Center, highlights some of the reasons his facility is bright, beautiful and ready for the production ramp-up.

"The new stuff we're bringing in is the latest and greatest, state-of-the-art," Maynard said, "and it really shows that we're willing to invest in this facility and make it work."
