When implementing industrial automation systems, efficiency and short lead times are crucial. At Zeta Group, we implement a 5-step process for all of our designs and installs. This 5-Step Zeta Process provides value-added engineering and custom solutions to drive business to the next level.
The Process
Step 1: The Brief
Customers brief us about what they want and need in an automation system. The project scope, opportunities and challenges are identified at the customer’s site.
Step 2: Concept Phase
We develop the conceptual designs and assemble a project budget range and duration.
Step 3: Preliminary Engineering
After the customer decides on a concept, we put more detail to the design, engage vendors and tighten the budget and duration.
Step 4: Engineering Phase
We execute detailed designs, conduct client reviews, safety reviews and schedule implementation.
Step 5: Execute the build
We build and test the new custom automated solution. We then plan for delivery and help train for use.



Advantages of The 5-Step Process

5-Step vs. 11-Step Process
Zeta’s 5-step process creates a simpler and quicker alternative to the traditional 11-step process. These other processes include various outside sources in order to get the job done. This means it takes longer and becomes more confusing as the job progresses.
With the 5-step process, Zeta can deliver up to 40% time-savings for speed-to-market.

Zeta Group Engineering is a robotic integrator and conveyor manufacturer based in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
