We modernize the software between the order and the shipped pallet: aging MES and ERP, machine data stuck on the floor, planning done in spreadsheets. Connect shop-floor reality to business systems, and automate the paperwork in between.
- →The MES was written by a vendor who no longer exists; changes require archaeology
- →Machine data stays on the machine; OEE is computed monthly, by hand, optimistically
- →Production planning lives in one planner's spreadsheet (and head)
- →Quality documentation is paper that gets scanned, then lost with better resolution
MES modernization
Strangler-fig replacement of shop-floor systems with parallel-run per line - production never waits on a rewrite.
Machine-data capture
PLC/SCADA integration into a real data layer; OEE and downtime become live numbers, not month-end folklore.
Document intelligence
Supplier certs, test reports, delivery notes - extracted, validated, filed against the right batch automatically.
Governed agents for planning
Agents that draft schedules and purchase suggestions under human approval - planners approve, not re-type.
Plant-floor FSMA traceability
For food plants and co-packers: PIN kiosk CTE capture, lot genealogy, hold/release, and FDA-sortable exports (Tracebox).
Manufacturing FAQs
Can you work with our OT/IT separation?
Yes - we design for it: read-only data diodes from OT where required, no cloud dependency on the line, and security reviews with your OT team before anything touches a PLC network.
Our ERP is heavily customized. Is that a problem?
It's the normal case. The assessment maps which customizations encode real differentiation (kept, documented) versus historical accidents (retired) - before any migration decision is made.
