Explain the client requirements $($in detail$),$ including design and engineering requirements, machine assembly requirements, machine configuration requirements, and requirements of the process of communication and coordination with the client$$s technicians and engineers. Based on the client$$s requirements, how do you perceive the type of steel fabrication machine you will make? Is it fully, or partially customized, mass production, or a mix? Decide machine type and justify your decision from the client$$s requirements.

Based on your analysis of the client$$s requirements, as a Senior Production Manager, what type of manufacturing strategy will you use in your manufacturing, production, and delivery of the steel fabrication machine to the client? Is it: Make$-$to$-$Order, Make$-$to$-$Stock, Engineer$-$to$-$Order, Assemble$-$to$-$Order, Configure$-$to$-$Order, or a combination of more than one strategy? Make your decision, state your decision clearly in the Production Report, and justify your decision by presenting evidence from the client$$s requirements.
