About

Certified Six Sigma Black Belt / Chemical Process Engineer (MSc.) With 25 years of experience in various roles in industry, across specialty chemicals, feed, food and pharma, I have profound understanding of complex manufacturing processes, its supply chains and its operational management practices and challenges. I am unique in bringing together both the process technology side and the business operational (IT/OT) side. I like to inspire people and share my extensive knowledge and teach about the fascinating world of ‘manufacturing´. I can unravel complexity with my rational thinking skills and many years of experience. By using my creativity, I can make that complexity simple to understand, and create highly structured visual models (that I believe are beautiful, like art) that help to explain and put in context many (organizational, logistical, administrative, financial, or business) processes. As a person and family man, I am authentic, I value my autonomy and am recognized for my independent thinking. Add friendliness, honesty, loyal, hardworking and committed and you will have Marnix Morskate. With my newly founded company (August 2024) 2 Master Manufacturing 2 B.V. ; I want to advise, consult and teach what Mastering Manufacturing is all about. Or even better; together with a team of ambitious forward-thinking individuals, I would really like to bring my vision of a Smart Factory into reality. An abstract concept, with plenty of room for philosophical and creative thinking and an exciting road towards development of such a factory. That factory will demonstrate SMART Manufacturing concepts and produce sustainable (novel) food products or be otherwise meaningful and relevant. It must also help tackle some of the world’s sustainability challenges by demonstrating how it can be done different.
