Manufacturing & Industrial
Manufacturing usually has the data already — on a machine, on a clipboard, in an operator's head. The gap is between where it is captured and where it is needed. We close that gap without asking the line to stop.
What this covers
Production visibility
Output, downtime and changeover recorded as they happen rather than at shift end.
Quality capture
Checks and non-conformances logged at the station, with the evidence attached.
Maintenance
Planned and reactive work against the asset, with history that informs the next decision.
Machine integration
Reading from equipment where it can be read, and designing sensibly where it cannot.
Traceability
Batch and serial history that can answer a recall question in minutes.
Planning support
Schedules that reflect actual capacity, including the constraints planners work around.
Who this is for
Discrete manufacturers
Mixed-model lines where changeover is the cost.
Process manufacturers
Batch records, yield and traceability under regulation.
Engineering and fabrication
Job shops where every order is slightly different.
Maintenance-heavy operations
Where uptime is the product.
How we work
People who have done it before
Teams that have worked in this setting, not a generic squad reading the brief for the first time.
One team, start to finish
The people who design it are the people who build it and the people who answer for it afterwards.
Working software early
Something running in weeks, so the direction is judged against a real thing rather than a document.
Sector experience, not sector slides
What we bring to the first meeting
We have worked in this sector, so the first conversation is about your constraints rather than an introduction to the domain. Where we have not done something before, we say so.
Talk to us
What we promise
- A named team you can reach, not an account manager relaying questions
- A working version early, and every fortnight after that
- Written estimates with the assumptions and the risks stated
- Your code, your data and your accounts, yours throughout
- A direct answer when something is late or will not work
How it runs
Understand
Two weeks with the people doing the work, mapping what actually happens rather than what the process document says.
Prove
One narrow slice built and put in front of real users, to test the approach before it is expensive to change.
Build
Delivery in fortnightly increments, each one usable, each one reviewed with you.
Run
Support, monitoring and improvement — or a handover to your team, documented.
Common questions
No. Most of the value comes from capturing what already happens and putting it where it can be acted on.
It should not. Capture is designed around the operator's actual hands and steps, and rollout is line by line.
Older equipment is normal. Where it cannot be read directly we design a capture step that takes seconds rather than pretending the data is not needed.
Yes. A factory network that drops should pause a screen, not lose a shift.
