Common Questions
Will this work with our existing MRP/ERP system?
Yes! We integrate with popular manufacturing systems like SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Sage, and custom solutions. We build connections to your existing infrastructure.
Do we need new equipment or sensors?
Not necessarily. We start by automating administrative and planning workflows. If machine monitoring would add value, we can recommend cost-effective IoT solutions.
How long does implementation take?
Typically 2-8 weeks depending on complexity. We start with high-impact quick wins like automated production reporting in the first 2 weeks.
What about industry-specific compliance?
We ensure all automations maintain compliance with relevant standards (ISO, FDA, etc.) and can build in automated compliance reporting and documentation.
