For founders

A sandbox twin for Manufacturing Grammar.

Spaghetti Carbonara Co. is a fictitious maker built for Mark Preston’s Manufacturing Grammar sessions. It gives founders and technical co-founders a shared product to reason about: a bill of materials, critical control points, a customer boundary and revision risk.

Why a carbonara kit?

  • Small enough to hold in your head
  • Real enough to argue about
  • Safe to break

The grammar the kit teaches

Lot

A batch you can trace, forwards and backwards.

CCP

A critical control point. Get this step wrong and nothing later fixes it.

Boundary

Where our control ends and yours begins.

Revision

The version of the spec you build to.

Three twins sit behind the brand

  • Quality twin — CCPs and non-conformances
  • Cost twin — what each miss costs
  • ERP twin — lot records into the kit

Teased in session only — no anonymous Excel downloads from this page. A half-day diagnostic exists; enquire to hear more. No prices on this site.

The Fractional CTO / caliper proof lives on the main site — this tree is the sandbox twin only.
