Here's the mistake I watched engineers make for twenty years. They get a floor plan and a product mix and they start placing equipment. Induction here, sorter there, takeaway along the wall. What they end up with is a layout. What they never built is a design. Part III is where you learn the difference. Before you spec a single conveyor, you tell the story of what material actually does in this building, then you grow that story, in layers, into a map that carries the rate, the decisions, the buffers, and the people. Get the flow right and the equipment almost picks itself. Get it wrong and no amount of steel fixes it later.
