We build the operating systems behind growth.
K2VS partners with manufacturers and investors during acquisitions, rapid growth, and operational breakdowns to design and execute scalable operational infrastructure.
We don’t deliver slide decks. We build processes, systems, and execution models that work on the plant floor and in the boardroom.
Built by operators. Designed for scale. Executed with precision.

When Execution Matters Most
Organizations engage K2VS when growth begins to outpace structure, visibility, or control.
Acquisitions, Integrations, Carve-Outs
Operational diligence, integration planning, and execution support.
Startups & Expansions
Plant, workflow, and system design to scale without chaos.
ERP Rescues & Reliability
Margin Erosion & Complexity
Scaling Beyond Founder-Led Systems
Operational Breakdowns
Stabilize delivery, scheduling, and execution under pressure.
What We Deliver
Operational clarity, system reliability, and execution velocity.
We design and implement operating systems that hold up under growth, complexity, and change—systems leaders can trust when execution matters.
What that means in practice:
Reliable throughput and constraint removal that stabilizes performance.
Decision-ready operational data that supports confident leadership.
Predictable scheduling and on-time delivery under real-world pressure.
Process architectures that scale without introducing chaos.
Faster value creation with lower execution risk.

How Engagements Work
01
Rapid Operational Assessment
2–4 weeks
We establish a clear view of the operation, identify constraints and opportunities, and define a prioritized, ROI-linked execution roadmap.
02
Execution Sprint
90 days
Focused implementation to stabilize systems, remove constraints, and deliver measurable operational improvement.
03
Fractional Leadership
Ongoing
We provide continued execution support, governance, and accountability as the organization scales.
Case Study: $100MM+ Manufacturing Platform
Designed and executed a phased, ground-up blown film manufacturing platform—built inside an abandoned facility and scaled according to a long-term $100MM+ operating plan.
The Challenge
Launch a new blown film manufacturing company from an abandoned industrial shell—without existing operations, processes, or workforce—while designing the facility, systems, and organization to support a fully scaled $100MM+ operation over time.
Our Approach
Developed the complete operating blueprint at the outset, defining the full-scale layout, process architecture, systems, and organizational model required for a $100MM+ platform. Execution was intentionally phased, allowing capacity, capital deployment, and staffing to scale in step with demand.
The Build
Executed a true greenfield build within a brownfield shell. The facility was gutted and re-engineered, including raising sections of the roof by over 80 feet to accommodate blown film lines. Manufacturing workflows, ERP systems, quality programs, and operating rhythms were designed and implemented from first principles. The entire team was hired and trained from scratch.
Measurable Results
Achieved first production in under nine months during the COVID-19 pandemic. Approximately $90MM of capital has been deployed to date against the long-term operating plan, supporting more than 100 high-paying manufacturing jobs. The facility was delivered ahead of schedule and under budget and designed for continued capacity expansion.
The K2 Difference
This project exemplifies our ability to bridge strategic vision with hands-on execution. We design full-scale operating platforms from the outset, then execute in disciplined phases—coordinating complex cross-functional initiatives while maintaining focus on operational control, scalability, and measurable business outcomes.
Our Team
K2VS is led by a core operator with deep experience in manufacturing, systems architecture, and complex execution—supported by a bench of senior specialists across operations, ERP, finance, and commercial strategy.
We assemble the right expertise at the right moment—without unnecessary overhead.
