Brian Lanning - GENESIS MANUFACTURING SOLUTIONS

Brian Lanning — Genesis Manufacturing Solutions

I’ve spent over 30 years in manufacturing, working directly with machine shops to program parts, troubleshoot issues, and improve production processes.
 

My background includes hands-on CNC programming, manufacturing engineering, and experience as an Applications Engineer for a major tooling manufacturer.

I bring a Lean Manufacturing mindset, ISO 9001 knowledge, and a business degree focused on operations — which means I’m not just looking at the code, I’m looking at how the entire process performs.


I don’t just write programs — I help solve the real problems that stop parts from running.

I approach every job from both the shop floor and the business side — because both have to work.

Why Contract Support Works

Most shops don’t need a full-time manufacturing engineer or CNC programmer every day — but they do need experienced support when problems arise, new jobs come in, or production needs to improve.

​

Contract support gives you access to real-world manufacturing experience exactly when you need it — without the overhead, downtime, or long-term commitment of a full-time hire.

What This Means for your Shop

  • Get experienced support when you need it

  • No full-time salary, benefits, or overhead

  • Faster problem solving and implementation

  • Scalable based on workload and demand

  • Continuity without long-term commitment

  • Real-world solutions, not theory

  • Work can often be structured as a business expense

  • Training and process improvement may qualify for state or local workforce development funding

  • A hands-on partner focused on keeping parts running — not a consultant who drops in and disappears

  • Avoid the cost and disruption of hiring, onboarding, and turnover

Let's Talk, It costs nothing to ask for help.
