Your assumption set: conventional factory space, idle humans, traditional management, ad-hoc process with skilled managers. This is similar to the "job shop" mentality in (dying) manufacturing. You additionally assume general purpose magic hardware that can usefully do anything.
Reality: Most value is in shrinking things, excluding humans, automating management, carefully designed process, and specialist hardware that does a subset of things very well. Relying on human(oid)s is a sure-fire way to suck.
