Manufacturing & Supply Chain

Autonomous factories. Predictive supply networks.

We help discrete and process manufacturers modernise operations with computer vision, predictive maintenance and AI-driven planning — from the shop floor to the tier-N supplier.

/ Use cases

Where we've done the work.

Not a catalogue — a sample of the problems we actively engineer solutions for today.

Use case 01

Predictive Maintenance

Time-series models on vibration, thermal and current signals detect anomalies days before failure, cutting unplanned downtime and MRO costs.

Use case 02

Vision QC on the Line

Edge-deployed CNNs inspect surface defects, weld quality and packaging integrity at line-speed with >99% accuracy.

Use case 03

Demand & S&OP Copilot

LLM copilots reconcile ERP, POS and market signals into probabilistic demand plans and what-if scenarios for planners.

Use case 04

Digital Thread & Traceability

Unified data fabric linking BOM, MES and QMS — instantly trace any defect back to raw batch and supplier.

/ User stories

The people we build for.

Every engagement starts with a real person, a real problem, and a job to be done. Here are three from this practice.

Persona
Ravi, Plant Head — auto components
Story 01

“As a plant head, I want to know which CNC spindle will fail this week so I can schedule maintenance during a planned changeover — instead of losing a full shift to a surprise breakdown.”

Persona
Meera, Supply Chain Director
Story 02

“As an SC director, I want a live risk view across my tier-2 suppliers so I can pre-position inventory before a monsoon disruption hits.”

Persona
Anil, Quality Lead
Story 03

“As a QC lead, I want vision AI to catch micro-scratches my line inspectors miss, so warranty claims from OEMs drop this quarter.”
