Connected Factories That Run on Real-Time Data.
We build production planning, shop-floor tracking, quality, maintenance, and supply chain software for manufacturers, connecting machines, people, and systems so you can produce more with less waste.
Trusted by teams building what's next
Manufacturers are under constant pressure on cost, quality and delivery, often with limited visibility of what is actually happening on the floor. Work in progress is tracked on paper travellers and whiteboards, machine data stays inside PLCs, and quality problems surface at final inspection or, worse, at the customer, when they are most expensive to fix.
As a manufacturing software development company, we design around the production process rather than generic modules: how orders are scheduled, how material moves between work centres, how operators record output and defects, and how maintenance responds. We build MES functionality, OEE monitoring, quality management and production planning tools that fit your plant, whether you run discrete, batch or process manufacturing.
Integration with the machines and the business is where most value comes from. Our platforms collect PLC and sensor data over OPC UA, Modbus and MQTT, often through Ignition or Siemens edge gateways, store it in time-series databases or AVEVA PI, and exchange orders, materials and costs with SAP, Oracle and Microsoft Dynamics using an ISA-95 model so the shop floor and ERP agree.
Security and quality are built in from the first sprint. We follow IEC 62443 for connected plant networks, support ISO 9001 quality records and ISO 27001 controls, and capture energy data for ISO 50001 and GHG Protocol reporting. The outcome is custom manufacturing software that operators use every shift, managers trust for decisions, and auditors can trace end to end.
We connect PLCs, CNCs and sensors over OPC UA, Modbus and MQTT, including older machines that need retrofit gateways, so every asset reports cycle, state and counts.
Clear boundaries between ERP, MES and control layers, with a shared data model for orders, materials and equipment that keeps shop floor and finance in sync.
Availability, performance and quality calculated from real machine data, with downtime reasons operators can record in seconds and managers can act on.
In-process inspections, SPC, non-conformance and CAPA workflows with lot and serial genealogy, producing the records ISO 9001 and customer audits expect.
Condition monitoring and failure prediction from vibration, temperature and current data, plus vision inspection where defects are visible on the line.
We pilot on one line, prove value, then extend cell by cell with operator training so production never pauses for a software release.

Configuration, reporting and integration oversight.
The problems we most often help manufacturing organisations solve, and design every engagement around.
Work in progress, bottlenecks and machine states are hard to see in real time, so problems are discovered at the end of a shift rather than when they start.
Breakdowns disrupt schedules and deliveries, and without condition data maintenance teams are stuck between over-servicing and reacting to failures.
Defects found at final inspection or by customers are expensive to fix, and without traceability it is hard to contain the affected batches quickly.
Orders, inventory and actual production diverge when data is keyed in by hand, undermining planning, costing and delivery promises.
Modern CNCs sit beside decades-old equipment with no network interface, making plant-wide data collection harder than vendor demos suggest.

Requirements come from operators and supervisors, not just a specification document, so the software matches how the plant really runs.
Our engineers connect machines and business systems, so integration is not handed off to a third party halfway through.
We work with mixed-age machine fleets and existing systems rather than assuming a greenfield factory.
We baseline OEE, scrap and downtime before we build, so improvements are visible and attributable.
Support, monitoring and continuous improvement keep the platform current as products, lines and plants change.
What organisations in this sector gain when the software is built around their workflows rather than the other way around.
Real downtime reasons and live machine states show exactly where capacity is lost and what to fix first.
In-process checks and SPC catch drift early, before a whole batch is affected.
Condition-based maintenance targets the machines most likely to fail and reduces emergency repairs.
Lot and serial genealogy finds affected products in minutes rather than days.
ERP receives actual production, scrap and labour, so schedules and product costs reflect reality.
Energy metering by line and product highlights waste and supports ISO 50001 targets.
Transparent, sprint-based and built around decisions you can see. You know what ships, when, and why at every step.
Start Your ProjectWe walk the floor with operators, supervisors, quality and maintenance, map how work and data actually flow, and agree the OEE, quality or lead time outcomes to improve.
ISA-95 boundaries, machine connectivity, edge versus cloud, ERP touchpoints and IEC 62443 security are documented before design starts.
Screens are tested at the workstation with real operators, gloves, noise and shift pressure, so data entry takes seconds rather than minutes.
Two-week sprints reviewed by your production leads, with machine connections built early on a pilot line or simulator.
End-to-end tests from PLC to ERP, load tests at peak production rates, edge failover checks and a penetration test before go-live.
We prove value on one line, train operators, then roll out cell by cell and plant by plant with a roadmap driven by measured results.
Chosen per project for longevity, hiring depth and fit with your existing systems, never by fashion.
AI IN MANUFACTURING
We apply AI on the shop floor where it pays back quickly: predicting failures, spotting defects, improving schedules and helping operators find answers, with engineers and supervisors approving every change to production.
Explore our AI engineeringThe shifts we design for so a product launched this year is still the right product in three.
Manufacturers are replacing monolithic MES with modular applications on a shared data layer, often built on Ignition or a unified namespace.
MQTT with Sparkplug B is becoming a common way to publish plant data once and consume it across MES, analytics and ERP.
Vision inspection, predictive maintenance and AI assistants for work instructions are moving from pilots into daily production.
IEC 62443 and the EU Cyber Resilience Act are raising the security bar for connected machines and plant software.
Customers increasingly ask for product carbon footprints, which depends on energy and material data captured at line level.
New and expanded plants in India, the Gulf and the US are being designed digital from day one, with software selected alongside equipment.
There is no honest single number. Scope, integrations and compliance drive the budget, so we price against a written scope after discovery. The factors below are what move it.
Each machine type needs connectivity, tag mapping and testing, and older machines may need retrofit hardware.
OEE alone is a smaller build than OEE, quality, maintenance, scheduling and traceability on one platform.
Each ERP, PLM, WMS or quality system adds mapping, test environment access and validation work.
Electronic records and signatures, validation documentation and audit trails add effort for pharma and food plants.
Plants with limited internet need edge servers, local failover and update processes.
Predictive and vision models need data collection, labelling, evaluation and monitoring.
| Engagement | Typical scope | Timeline |
|---|---|---|
| Pilot line MVP | One line or work centre, machine connectivity, OEE and downtime tracking, one ERP touchpoint. | 10 to 14 weeks |
| Production platform | Plant-wide MES modules, quality and maintenance, ERP integration, operator and supervisor apps. | 4 to 7 months |
| Enterprise or multi-plant | Multiple plants and machine types, shared data platform, analytics, AI and phased rollout. | 8 to 14 months, phased |
Revenue models we have built billing, reporting and growth loops for. Most products combine two or three.
Subscription pricing per plant, line or connected machine for MES and OEE products.
Annual licences and implementation fees for multi-plant manufacturers and industrial groups.
OEMs sell connected monitoring, remote support and spare parts subscriptions alongside their equipment.
Fees linked to uptime, OEE or energy savings, common in maintenance and energy services.
Paid modules, connectors and analytics packs sold on top of a core manufacturing platform.
The engineering disciplines every project in this sector draws on. Each has its own page with process, stack and FAQs.

Straight answers about manufacturing software projects. If yours is not here, ask us directly.
Ask our manufacturing teamCost depends on the number of machines and lines to connect, the modules in scope such as OEE, quality, maintenance and scheduling, the ERP and other systems to integrate, and whether you run regulated production that needs validation. A pilot line MVP is a much smaller investment than a multi-plant MES. After a short discovery we provide a fixed-scope proposal with a clear breakdown.
A pilot line MVP typically takes 10 to 14 weeks. A plant-wide production platform with MES modules, quality, maintenance and ERP integration usually takes four to seven months. Multi-plant programmes are delivered in phases over eight to fourteen months, line by line, so production is never interrupted.
We design system boundaries using ISA-95, secure connected plant networks to IEC 62443, and support ISO 9001 quality records, ISO 27001 controls and ISO 50001 energy reporting. For pharmaceutical or food plants we add electronic records and signatures aligned with FDA 21 CFR Part 11.
Yes. We connect PLCs, CNCs and sensors over OPC UA, Modbus, MQTT and MTConnect, often through Ignition, Kepware or Siemens Industrial Edge, and exchange orders, materials and production data with SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Epicor or Odoo. Older machines can be retrofitted with sensors and gateways.
App development usually means the operator, supervisor or mobile apps people use on the floor. Manufacturing software development covers the whole system: those apps plus machine connectivity, data pipelines, ERP integration, analytics and security. We deliver both as one connected product.
Both. We build custom MES modules where off-the-shelf products do not fit your process, and we extend or integrate existing MES and ERP platforms where they already work. The decision comes from discovery, not from a preferred product.
Yes. We calculate availability, performance and quality from real machine signals and production counts, with operator-entered downtime reasons and agreed rules for planned stops, so OEE figures are consistent across lines, shifts and plants.
Yes. We assess the current system, migrate data with validation, and replace functionality in phases, often starting with one line, so production continues while the new platform takes over.
