Manufacturing software development

Business process management

• Manufacturing execution systems (MES), provide real-time monitoring and control over the shop floor activities, generating realistic production schedules, identifying and mitigating quality issues and bottlenecks during production

• Product lifecycle management (PLM) software to manage the entire lifecycle of a product from initial concept design to manufacturing and disposal, helping reduce time-to-market and improve product quality

• Equipment monitoring solutions to increase machinery lifetime and reduce maintenance costs by monitoring and optimizing the condition and performance of manufacturing equipment in real time

• Human-machine interface (HMI) software with an intuitive user interface to monitor and control complex machinery and get immediate access to critical system data

• Asset management solutions to track and analyze the performance and utilization of the factory’s physical assets throughout their lifecycle, schedule maintenance activities, plan asset procurement, modernization, and disposal

• Quality management systems, enabling manufacturers to run quality control procedures, generate and distribute quality policies and standard operating procedures (SOPs), assist with corrective and preventive activities to comply with quality standards and industry regulations

Business process management

• Environment, health, and safety (EHS) software to manage chemical inventory, track sustainability initiatives, monitor waste management, and perform inspections to reduce workers' health and safety risks and ensure regulatory compliance

• Field service management applications to assist managers and supervisors with work order scheduling, task assignment, and monitoring the performance of on-site workers as well as provide field service with all the information needed to fulfill their daily tasks

Business process management

• Logistics software to plan and oversee the inbound and outbound movement of goods, monitor carrier performance, automate carrier selection, track freight, as well as plan and optimize route schedules

• Procurement software to automate raw materials order creation, supplier and contract management, and gain valuable insights into procurement spending

• Supplier relationship management solutions to automate supplier selection and onboarding, assess supplier risks, track and analyze supplier performance metrics, manage contracts, and monitor compliance with contract terms

• Vendor portals, ensuring direct communication and document sharing between a manufacturer and vendors to streamline procurement, contract management and payment transactions

• Warehouse management systems, furnished with real-time inventory tracking and control, automated receiving and shipping management, order picking and packing, and warehouse workforce planning capabilities to effectively manage inventory as it moves through the warehouse and increase order fulfillment speed and accuracy

• Inventory management solutions, facilitating real-time inventory tracking, demand forecasting, and automated reordering to avoid stockouts and reduce inventory carrying costs

Business process management

• CRM solutions, facilitating customer data consolidation, contact and lead management, sales pipeline tracking, customer support and marketing activities automation

• Order management systems, streamlining order fulfillment with automated multi-channel order management, inventory management, payment processing and return management

• Ecommerce platforms, enabling manufacturers to give full product information, personalize buyer’s experience, offer flexible payment options, and provide strong customer support to improve the repeat purchase rate

• Customer portals with self-service capabilities for customers to access product info, place and track order status, submit support tickets or request support from a dedicated account manager, receive custom quotes and discounts

AI/ML-powered solutions facilitate intelligent automation of manufacturing processes, enabling data-driven decision-making, forecasting production events, and reducing manufacturing risks:
