With 2024 winding down, the focus is shifting to early 2025 projects. Planning and securing production slots ahead of time is essential to avoid delays and potential material shortages. NexGen Manufacturing has put strategies in place to ensure a smooth start to the new year, prioritizing readiness to support our clients’ goals from the outset.
Industry-Wide Planning for Q1
Gartner’s recent survey reveals that manufacturers typically experience a surge in Q1 as companies aim to kick off new-year initiatives with strong production outputs. This period sees increased demand due to re-energized budgets and project launches, making early preparation critical (Gartner Manufacturing Trends 2024). According to Deloitte, companies planning and securing production well in advance experience up to 25% fewer delays and smoother workflows across the quarter (Deloitte 2024 Industry Outlook).

Research from the Association for Manufacturing Excellence suggests that early forecasting and scheduling significantly reduce backlogs, enabling manufacturers to meet critical deadlines during high-demand times (Association for Manufacturing Excellence, 2024). By aligning our schedules with client needs early, we can ensure projects progress without unexpected setbacks.
