2023–VN EVALUATION
01 Background
Geopolitics redrew the industry's map; customers began asking for capacity beyond China.
02 Challenge
Every country plays by different rules — equipment import limits, electrical codes, certifications, compliance walls.
03 Approach
Vietnam: line-transfer planning and evaluation, version after version. Taiwan: the pilot center for first builds. Texas: feasibility for a specialized product process. Arizona: migrating four product lines across the Pacific. And a full five-year plan for India, written years early.
04 My role
Engineering-side planning lead — layouts, equipment specs, technical data across sites.
