The People Behind WH Kemp

Stefan Barbu

Today, he leads a team of four focused on understanding exactly what a new customer requires and ensuring the prototype is delivered as intended. His team takes projects from initial brief through prototype sign-off and FAIR, then establishes the manufacturing setup, including process flows, PFMEAs, SOPs, fixtures, tooling, training and test routines.
