The line runs. Margin shouldn’t bleed.
Whetstone embeds senior operators on the plant floor and across the supply chain to lift throughput, cut waste and free working capital — so you get more out of the assets you already own. Business-side operations: we never override engineering or safety controls.
Where plant margin quietly slips away.
Between raw material and shipped product, margin bleeds in downtime, waste and trapped inventory. We find the constraints and clear them.
