Trouble shooting
Looking at potential problems, or problems that are in real life, I look at it and discuss with the team. I had a real time problem with the machines that were ready to be put in place wouldn’t not fit in the dimensions of the footprint on the floor. Instead of blowing the budget, by moving other machine, I looked at it and made the decision to place the machines on a 45 deg angle.
