We help small manufacturers turn operational data into measurable results — using proven tools, practical implementations, and a methodology built for the shop floor.
Manufacturers using data-driven operational monitoring reduce unplanned downtime by 25–40% within the first year.
Know when equipment is about to fail — before it does. Real-time sensor monitoring and predictive maintenance alerts keep your lines running.
Stop copying data between systems by hand. Automated pipelines connect your PLCs, ERP, and dashboards so your team works on problems, not spreadsheets.
From quality checklists to work order generation, we automate the workflows that drain your operators' time — without disrupting the floor.
We work with manufacturers between 25 and 250 employees — companies that need modern data infrastructure but can't justify enterprise-scale costs or multi-year implementation timelines.
If your team is making decisions from spreadsheets, paper logs, or gut instinct, you're leaving efficiency on the table. We fix that — practically, affordably, and without overhauling your operation.
Industries We Serve
We come on-site, map your current data flows, and identify your highest-ROI improvement opportunities. You leave with a prioritized roadmap and an honest picture of what's possible.
We implement one high-impact solution — a live OEE dashboard, an automated reporting pipeline, a predictive maintenance system — and measure the results against your baseline.
Once the pilot proves ROI, we move into an ongoing retainer: monitoring, optimization, and continuous improvement. Your investment keeps compounding.
Live visibility into availability, performance, and quality across every line and shift. Built on open-source tools your team can actually maintain.
Connect your PLCs, SCADA, ERP, and reporting systems. Eliminate manual data entry and get accurate, timely information without the spreadsheet grind.
Sensor data → anomaly detection → maintenance alert. Catch failures before they happen. Reduce reactive maintenance costs by 25–40%.
Intelligent agents that handle routine workflows — work order generation, quality reporting, inventory queries — so your people focus on higher-value work.
When off-the-shelf tools don't fit your process, we build what does. Custom MES modules, ERP integrations, and operator interfaces.
Not sure where to start? Our Rapid Assessment gives you a clear, prioritized plan — with ROI estimates — before you commit a dollar to implementation.
Enter your numbers and see the potential impact of a 5–10 point OEE improvement at your facility.
These estimates are based on industry benchmarks and your inputs. Actual results vary by facility, equipment, and implementation scope. A Rapid Assessment at your facility will establish your specific baseline and a more accurate ROI projection.
Enter your email and we'll send you a summary of your results — plus the next step to get a real baseline from your floor.

We're not IT consultants who learned manufacturing terminology. We understand OEE, cycle time, first-pass yield, and changeover optimization — because that's the language of the problems we solve.
Enterprise solutions start at $500K and take 18 months. Ours start at $3,000 and deliver measurable results within 90 days. We use proven open-source tools to keep your costs down and your control up.
No vendor lock-in. No proprietary platform subscriptions. Every solution we build uses tools your team can maintain, modify, and hand off.
Every engagement starts small. Our Rapid Assessment gives you a roadmap; our fixed-fee pilots prove ROI before any larger investment. We earn the next phase.
Start with a free 30-minute call. We'll ask about your operation, identify your biggest data and process pain points, and tell you honestly whether we can help.
