Professionals · Workshops · Manufactures

Train a team. Develop a finish. Entrust a component.

Three needs, three working frameworks. Alexandra starts from your components, constraints and expected finish: transferring a method, defining a finish or carrying out work after a feasibility study.

Three professional needs

Which working framework matches your request?

Each route has its own process, useful information and contact subject.

01 · Knowledge transfer

Train or develop a team.

Prepare: profiles, number of people, components, current level, equipment and quality objective.

View the team-training framework

02 · Development

Study and define a finish.

Prepare: component, geometry, neighbouring surfaces, expected result, constraints and questions to resolve.

View the technical-review framework

03 · Execution

Entrust a component after feasibility review.

Prepare: component type, material, condition, expected finish, indicative volume and preferred timing.

Training & support

Align several hands around the same criteria.

Training starts from existing practices, the company’s components and the deviations that recur during inspection. It can take place on site or in Les Brenets, with the aim of giving the team shared terminology, criteria and techniques it can continue to use independently.

  • AssessmentSkills, technical needs and workshop objectives.
  • TrainingHand and micromotor bevelling, inspection and correction on real components.
  • StructureWorkstation, tools, supports, ergonomics and inspection criteria.
  • Advanced workTargeted practice to stabilise method, precision and confidence.

Process

Assess, train, inspect and embed the method.

Qualify the need

Alexandra examines current practices, components, available equipment and the standards to be achieved.

Train in the right environment

Exercises and corrections use the company’s production environment or the complete equipment available in Les Brenets.

Inspect application

Width, edge definition, surface condition, transitions and continuity of reflection are inspected directly on the relevant components.

Transfer the criteria

The criteria, techniques and inspection process are expressed clearly enough to be repeated and passed on within the workshop.

In-house training case · Urban Jürgensen

Urban Jürgensen: from assessment to in-house capability.

For Urban Jürgensen, Alexandra built a three-stage programme: assess the needs, train the team at the manufacture, then consolidate the techniques at Art de l’Anglage.

Nature of the assignment: training and advanced development led by Alexandra Schmitz to transfer an anglage method to the Urban Jürgensen team, first on site and then in Les Brenets.

01 · Assess

Observe current practice and set priorities.

Existing skills, technical needs and quality objectives determined the content of the assignment.

02 · Train on site

Train using their components and equipment.

At Urban Jürgensen, every correction was connected to the manufacture’s components, equipment and in-house requirements.

03 · Refine

Consolidate precision in Les Brenets.

Advanced training in Les Brenets reinforced the method, reading of reflected light, precision of corrections and consistency of inspection.

The Urban Jürgensen workshop now has full autonomy to continue this work in-house, with rigour and consistency.

Finish study & development

Define a finish before producing it.

For a new component, unusual geometry or a finish level that still needs clarification, Alexandra can review the component, its access, neighbouring surfaces and expected result. The aim is to establish what is technically coherent and what still needs validation before production.

  • ReadGeometry, access, sensitive areas and surfaces to protect.
  • FrameExpected result, visual criteria and the limits of the request.
  • TestTrial, sample or prototype when necessary and agreed.
  • TransferThe criteria can then be explained to the team that will continue the work.

Subcontracting · professionals

The component comes before the quote.

Every request starts with a technical review: material, geometry, access, initial condition, expected finish, volume and timing. A proposal is prepared only once the work and its conditions are clearly understood.

Request a feasibility study

Qualify

Component type, material, geometry, condition and expected finish.

Check feasibility

Access, sensitive areas, technical risks, volumes and required means.

Issue a proposal

Scope, timing and pricing are defined in a quotation for the studied request.

Protect confidentiality

No client or component is published without written authorisation.

Clear public limits

  • AccessService for professional clients only.
  • PricingNo universal rate.
  • VolumesReviewed case by case.
  • TimingDefined only in the proposal.
  • ConfidentialityApplied by default.
  • CommitmentWork begins only after qualification and formal agreement.

Workshop questions

The information needed to prepare a proposal.

Can training take place on our premises?

Yes. Alexandra can work on site or receive the team in Les Brenets. The choice depends on components, equipment, constraints and the objective.

Is the programme standardised?

Every programme is built around the profiles, components, available equipment and expected quality criteria.

How is progress observed?

Through named criteria: geometry, width, edge, surface condition, reflection continuity and the ability to inspect and correct.

How is confidentiality protected?

No client, component or assignment content is published without written authorisation. The scope can be formalised before the work begins.

Is a subcontracting request automatically accepted?

Alexandra begins with a feasibility study covering material, geometry, condition, technical risks, volume and timing.
