How we work
We work alongside your teams and the OEMs and contractors you already use. Most engagements start small, on one line or tool group, with the numbers agreed up front.
How an engagement runs
- 01
Diagnose
We sit down with your team and find where output, time or skills are being lost.
- 02
Define
We put a value on the gap and agree a roadmap that covers both equipment and people.
- 03
Mobilise
We bring in specialists only where the roadmap needs them, with roles and terms agreed first.
- 04
Deliver
We work with your team, report against the agreed numbers and hand over when your people can run it.
Start with one line
Where it makes sense, we begin with a pilot on one line, tool set or role, usually for eight to twelve weeks. We agree the measures on day one, and you decide whether to go further based on the results.
Typical pilots
- First-pass yield on a high-value line
- Cycle time on a bottleneck operation
- Onboarding time for a critical role
Where fab schedules slip
Delays tend to appear where facility, utilities, tools, systems and people meet. These are the six points to watch on a typical factory programme.
Six points where schedules slip
- Site and facility, Build: Hook-up waits on cleanroom completion
- Utilities and hook-up, Install: Utilities are late at tool move-in
- Tool install and qualification, Qualify: MES is not live at qualification
- IT/OT, MES and data, Qualify: Users are not trained on MES
- Workforce readiness, Ramp: Teams are not ready for automation
- AI, automation and Lean, Ramp: Automation is unproven at handover
We plan these together and check readiness before each one.
Who does what
Your teams and contractors keep their scope. Maitrio looks after the plan that connects them and the readiness checks at each step. When there's a gap, we bring in one of 18 specialist companies, each on its own scope and contract.

Are you a specialist company?
We work with companies in engineering, automation, digital, immersive learning and workforce development. Tell us what you do and where you work.
Common questions
Do you replace our engineering teams or service partners?
No. They keep their work. We connect their plans and check readiness at each stage.
Who holds the contracts with specialist companies?
Each specialist company works under its own scope and contract. We agree roles and commercial terms for each engagement before work starts.
Can we start small?
Yes. Most engagements start with a diagnostic, a readiness review or a pilot on one line or role.
How do you handle confidential information?
You don't need to share anything confidential in a first conversation. Before you do, we'll put a mutual NDA in place.
Can you share relevant experience?
Yes. Our managing director, Vijindra G P, helped start up two greenfield 300mm fabs and a 200mm-to-300mm conversion at GlobalFoundries and ran multi-site programmes. Our advisors bring OSAT, foundry process and fab experience from AMD, GlobalFoundries, Chartered Semiconductor and Lumileds. We'll walk you through what's relevant in a first conversation, under NDA if needed.
Tell us what's holding things up.
A tool group that won't stay up, a move-in date at risk, a role you can't fill. We'll tell you whether we can help. If the details are confidential, we'll sign a mutual NDA first.
