AOP Completed, governance phase active

THE SITUATION

A rapidly scaling industrial manufacturer in the flexible packaging sector was outgrowing its founder-led operating model. New production capacities were being added, but the internal structures — planning, accountability, and governance — had not kept pace. The business needed to transition from owner-driven, ad-hoc decision-making to a professionalised, scalable corporate operating model. INTIN was brought in as a long-term strategic anchor to lead that transformation.
