About us
One partner for the whole transformation.
Progress Lab was founded in 2020 in Vicenza to close the gap between what software can do and what factories actually benefit from.

Why we do this
“Either the company builds the systems to carry more work, or it spends its energy holding itself together.”
Successful manufacturers always reach the same point. Orders are coming in, the product is good, but every new customer means more checks, more reports, more chasing between departments.
So companies hire more people hoping it will solve the issue, but instead it creates additional friction and coordination overhead and the business starts slowing down under its own weight. Growth gets expensive just when it should make things easier.
That's the stage when either the company builds the systems to carry more work, or it spends its energy holding itself together.
I saw the gap between what software could do and what factories ended up with. Vendors and integrators each cover their piece, and nobody owns the whole. So the owner ends up chasing every handover between departments personally.
I started Progress Lab to be the partner that owns the whole: from the first assessment to results you can measure, and still there when adoption gets hard.
If growth is starting to feel heavier than it should, let's talk.

How we think
Proven practice, modern technology
Our expertise was born in the trenches of real manufacturing companies, running real projects. We speak the language of everyone from the boardroom to the shop floor.
-
Manufacturing operations
Lean, Six Sigma and the Theory of Constraints, applied to your plant, and ready to plug into larger programs you already run.
-
Agile improvement
Lasting change comes in steps, but it doesn't have to be slow. Small, iterative releases bring results fast and make them stick.
-
Human-centred design
Systems built for everyone who uses them, from operators to the board, so people actually adopt them.
-
Information systems
From the CNC machine to the executive dashboard and back. Data flows, fresh, to where decisions are made.
Let's close the gap.
Tell us where growth gets stuck, or where your last project stalled. Whatever the fit, you'll leave the call knowing how to move forward.
