Connect every machine.
See every site. Then automate the rest.

We are system integrators for modern SCADA and Industrial IoT. We put your plant floor on one live dashboard — then layer supervised AI agents on top of that data, across production and sales.

What we do

Two practices. One data foundation.

Digitization makes your plant data trustworthy. Agentic AI is what becomes possible once it is. Same team, same architecture, delivered in that order.

Industrial digitization & SCADA

Connect every asset, historize every signal, and give operators and management dashboards they actually open. Ignition Perspective where it fits, a custom stack where it does not.

  • Machine & PLC connectivity — MTConnect, FANUC FOCAS, OPC-UA, Modbus, BACnet, plus retrofit IO for machines with no network port
  • OEE & downtime analytics — automatic state capture, reason codes, shift and operator breakdowns on a SQL historian
  • Multi-site rollup — MQTT Sparkplug B with store-and-forward, so a WAN outage costs you nothing
  • Digital twin & process graphics — live P&ID and thermal views for utilities, chiller plants and data halls
  • Alarm rationalization — ISA-18.2 priorities, shelving and escalation that cut nuisance alarms

Agentic AI for production & sales

Tool-using agents that read your historian, MES and CRM, investigate in plain language, and draft the work a supervisor or engineer would otherwise do by hand — never committing without approval.

  • Downtime triage copilot — correlates stoppages across machines and names a likely cause with the evidence attached
  • Shift & compliance reporting — handover summaries and batch records assembled from live data, not memory
  • Predictive maintenance agent — watches current, vibration and cycle drift, then drafts a work order for approval
  • Sales lifecycle agents — enquiry qualification, RFQ and tender analysis, BOM-backed quote drafting, CRM hygiene
  • Private deployment — your VPC or on-premise where data residency requires it, with a full audit trail

Protocol coverage

OPC-UA, MQTT Sparkplug B, Modbus TCP/RTU, BACnet, FOCAS, MTConnect, Siemens S7, EtherNet/IP.

Historian & reporting

SQL tag historian, partitioning and retention policy, scheduled PDF and email reporting.

Perspective dashboards

Responsive operator, supervisor and executive views with role-based access and mobile layouts.

Alarm pipelines

SMS, email and voice notification with on-call rosters, escalation and acknowledgment tracking.

IT / OT integration

REST and database bridges into MES and ERP, so shop-floor data reaches the systems that bill for it.

Commissioning & support

FAT and SAT, operator training, as-built documentation, and remote gateway maintenance.

Proven in production

Three deployments we build most often

The screens below are representative Perspective views. Same architecture from a single cell to a multi-country group.

Digitizing 50 CNC machines

A precision machining plant running a mixed fleet — FANUC, Siemens 840D, Haas and Mazak — plus a dozen older machines with no network port at all. We brought all 50 online: native protocol adapters where the control supported them, retrofit IO and current sensing where it did not, and one UDT model so every machine reports identically regardless of vendor.

Agentic AI in production and sales

Once the data is trustworthy, agents become practical. Ours investigate, draft and recommend — and stop at a human before anything is written back.

Production lifecycle

Wired into the historian, MES and maintenance system.

  • Downtime triage — correlates stoppages and names the likely cause with evidence
  • Shift reports — handover summaries generated from production, quality and alarm data
  • Predictive maintenance — drift detection that drafts a work order, never files one
  • Plain-language search — "every CNC that lost over 20 minutes this week"
  • Energy advisor — flags load patterns and proposes scheduling changes with projected savings

Sales lifecycle

Industrial sales cycles are long, technical and full of manual follow-up.

  • Lead qualification — enriches and scores inbound enquiries against your ICP
  • Quote drafting — BOM-backed proposals from your price book and past projects
  • RFQ & tender analysis — reads specifications and extracts scope, risk and compliance gaps
  • CRM hygiene — keeps records current and surfaces stalled opportunities
  • Pipeline intelligence — win/loss patterns and forecast commentary for the weekly review

Agent

Strong ICP match, score 86. Closest reference is the 50-machine CNC rollout. Estimated effort 9–11 weeks: two site gateways plus an enterprise tier.

Gate

Scoped proposal and BOM drafted, routed to the sales lead. Nothing sent until a human approves.

01

Observe

Reads live tags, historian, ERP and CRM context

02

Reason

Correlates signals into a hypothesis with evidence

03

Act

Calls only approved tools — query, draft, schedule, notify

04

Approve

A human confirms before anything is written back

05

Audit

Every step logged, reviewable and reversible

Read-only data access by default, scoped tool permissions, and no autonomous writes to control systems. Private and on-premise hosting where data residency requires it.

How we work

Data first. AI second. Always in that order.

01

Discovery

Asset audit, protocol survey, tag list and topology mapping.

02

Integration

Machine and PLC connectivity, UDT model, historian, alarms.

03

Visualization

Operator, supervisor and executive views. Mobile included.

04

Deploy

FAT and SAT, operator training, documented go-live support.

05

Augment

One agentic AI workflow, measured, then expanded.

“We had machine data locked inside four different controller vendors and a paper downtime log. Within one rollout it was all on a single live dashboard — and for the first time the plant and the group office were looking at the same numbers.”

Engagement models

Start small and prove it, or hand us the programme

Both work. Most customers start with the assessment because it de-risks the rest.

2–3 weeks

Digitization assessment

We audit your assets, protocols and existing systems, then hand over a plan you could execute with anyone.

  • Connectivity map per machine
  • Tag architecture & UDT proposal
  • Costed, phased rollout plan
  • Fixed fee, no obligation to continue
Ongoing

Managed support & AI rollout

We keep the platform healthy and introduce agentic AI one workflow at a time, with measured outcomes.

  • Gateway maintenance and monitoring
  • Dashboard evolution as needs change
  • Phased agent deployment with guardrails
  • Remote support across time zones
Questions

The things people ask first

Can you connect machines that have no network port?

Yes — that is usually a third of a real shop floor. Where a control exposes nothing usable we retrofit: current sensing on the spindle drive, stack-light tapping, cycle-start contacts into a small IO module. You lose part-level detail on those machines but you still get accurate run/idle/down state and cycle counts, which is what OEE needs.

Do we have to use Ignition?

No. Ignition Perspective is our default because the licensing model and the Perspective module suit most of these projects, but we have built custom stacks where a client had a different constraint. What we will not do is lock you in: you own the tag model, the database and the documentation either way.

What happens to a site if the link to head office drops?

Nothing. Each site runs its own gateway and its own local SCADA — the enterprise tier is a subscriber, not a dependency. MQTT store-and-forward buffers data at the edge and backfills the historian when the link returns, so the group dashboard catches up without gaps.

Will the AI agents change anything in my control system?

No. Agents get read-only access to operational data by default and can only call the tools you explicitly approve. Anything with a consequence — a work order, an email to a customer, a schedule change — is drafted and queued for a human. Every step is logged and reversible.

How long before we see something real?

The assessment gives you a connectivity map and a costed plan in two to three weeks. On a turnkey deployment the first machines are usually reporting live within three to four weeks, and we deliberately get one dashboard in front of operators early rather than revealing everything at go-live.

Where are you based, and can you work with our site in Europe?

We are based in Hyderabad, India, and have delivered across India, Germany and the wider EU. Commissioning is on site; development, support and gateway maintenance are remote, with overlap into European working hours.

We will come back with a connectivity map and a realistic plan — not a brochure.
