Muti Nayyar is a Chartered Engineer and Member of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers who founded MN Consultants in Basingstoke, Hampshire. He assesses and improves manufacturing operations and leads digitalisation projects for manufacturers across the UK.

His career spans private-equity-backed manufacturers, an NHS Tier 1 supplier, high-volume automotive supply chains and engineered products, working from the production line to the leadership team. That is why every engagement starts on the floor.

Muti leads every engagement and stays on the floor with your team. He is the single accountable lead, so there are no layers of junior consultants and no hand-offs, and engagements are kept as short as the problem allows.

One lead, a bench of specialist consultants

Few factory problems sit in one discipline. Muti scopes the work, then brings in the specialist each site needs, so you get depth without managing several suppliers.

Lean and OEE consultants

5S, standard work, SMED, flow and equipment effectiveness. Lean assessment.

Quality and cost reduction consultants

FMEA, error-proofing and waste removal. Cost reduction.

ERP and automation consultants

ERP and MRP delivery, MES readiness, cobots and test rigs. All services.

How we work

Observe before advising

We stand on the floor and watch the whole process run. Recommendations follow evidence.

Stabilise before automating

We digitalise and automate processes that are stable and measured, so the investment pays back.

Leave capability behind

Standard work and daily management mean results hold after we leave.
