Conceptual Design and System Analysis
Genesis Engineering, Inc. is experienced in front-end conceptual design and
analysis of existing or new material handling and packaging systems. Our services include System
Throughput and Analysis, Simulation, and Plant Layout and Master Planning.
System Throughput and Analysis
When a client has a proposed throughput or packaging change, Genesis can assist with defining the
scope necessary to accommodate such changes. Our engineers are skilled in system analysis, working
closely with the client to gather operational, technical and product information. Through the use of
time and speed studies, flow chart analysis, data iterations, and
computer simulation, we can highlight potential problem
areas before scope is finalized or installed. A systems study report is produced
that includes all input data, system assumptions, results data, conclusions and recommendations.
Analysis studies can result in conceptual layout options, control strategies, equipment lists,
equipment specifications, power needs and procurement requirements.
Computer Simulation
As a tool for System Analysis, computer simulation helps to verify engineering calculations and
judgments. We can demonstrate to the client how changes in logic, layout, speed and packaging affect
their system. See the computer simulation page for more information.

Plant Layout and Master Planning
Genesis Engineering has a history of developing plant master plans, material handling layout options,
and packaging line layouts. Whether looking for an expansion or modification of an existing system, or
developing an entirely new plant, we will discuss your needs and work closely with you. If appropriate,
we solicit input from various levels of your organization, from managers to engineers, technicians and
operators. We strive to develop creative and flexible solutions, yet are mindful of the realities of fiscal
and schedule constraints.
As stated above, when providing conceptual layout options, Genesis can also provide preliminary Bill
of Materials, control strategies, equipment lists, specifications, and power requirements.
