The paper presents technical aspects of relocation of production and assembly lines. Preparatory stages of relocation, its course, planning and execution, way and process of reaching the assumed mechanical and stability parameters are described. The authors are focused on crucial issues limiting risk: securing supplies to customers by properly large inventory, personnel training and process standardization, transport activities, line assembly after relocation and reaching the target productivity. Effects of relocation on failure and productivity rates are presented. The analysis is based on the data acquired before relocation, in its course and after its completion, as well as during the stages of putting into operation and reaching the required productivity.
