AI-integrated manufacturing

Build the plant.
Then make it think.

From bare land to a line that predicts its own failures. Six disciplines — AI, greenfield delivery, HRMS, TQM, TPM and ESG — installed as one system, on your floor, by people who have run plants themselves.

Illustrative readout from an installed programme. Every figure on this site is an illustration until it is your plant’s — which is exactly what the first two weeks are for.

What we do

Six practices. One operating system.

Most plants buy these six things from five vendors and then spend three years making them talk to each other. We install them as one thing, because the data, the standard work and the people are the same in all six.

01 — AI-Integrated Manufacturing

Models that run on the line, not in a pilot deck.

  • Vision inspection at line speed, on defects people miss
  • Failure prediction on the assets that actually stop you
  • Demand and production forecasting your planners trust
  • A shop-floor data layer supervisors will use unprompted

11 wkpilot to production

02 — Greenfield Projects

Bare land to first article — with the intelligence designed in, not retrofitted.

  • Feasibility, site selection and capacity modelling
  • Layout, material flow and line balancing before concrete
  • Equipment specification, vendor selection and negotiation
  • Utilities, commissioning, validation and ramp to rate

0 → 1land to running line

03 — HRMS & Workforce Systems

The shop floor’s operating system for people.

  • Org design, manpower norming and span of control
  • Skills matrix, multi-skilling and certification
  • Shift, attendance and payroll integration
  • Performance, incentive and retention design

1record, one source of truth

04 — Total Quality Management

Quality built in, not inspected in.

  • Policy deployment and daily management
  • SPC, MSA and gauge R&R that hold under audit
  • 8D, A3 and root-cause discipline on the floor
  • Supplier quality and complaint closure

05 — Total Productive Maintenance

The machine is available because the operator owns it.

  • Autonomous and planned maintenance, run by the shift
  • OEE loss trees down to the six big losses
  • SMED changeover reduction with the setters
  • Spares strategy and maintenance planning systems

85%world-class OEE, held

06 — ESG & Sustainability

Compliance that survives an audit. Energy that stops leaking.

  • Energy and utility mapping, then the biggest losses
  • Carbon accounting across Scope 1, 2 and 3
  • HIGG FEM, ZDHC, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001
  • Water, effluent and waste as measured process loss

3scopes, measured not estimated

Not sure which one

Most plants need three of these, and cannot tell you which three.

That is what the first two weeks are for. We walk the floor, read the data you already have, and come back with the order to do things in — priced.

The thread

AI is not the seventh practice. It is what the other five run on.

A vision model is only as good as the quality system that defines a defect. A failure prediction is only useful if maintenance planning can act on it. A carbon number is only auditable if the shop-floor data is clean. Bought separately, these six disciplines fight. Installed together, each one makes the next cheaper.

TQM

defines the truth

What counts as a defect, measured the same way twice. Without it every model learns someone’s opinion.

TPM

gives the model something to act on

A prediction with no planned-maintenance route behind it is a notification nobody opens.

HRMS

decides whether any of it survives

Skills, shifts and incentives are what turn a new standard into the way the shift actually runs.

ESG

reads the same meter

Scope 1 and 2 come out of the same energy data the OEE model already consumes. Measured once, used twice.

Greenfield

Land to line, in six stages

The cheapest place to design intelligence into a plant is before the floor is poured. We run greenfield projects from the demand case to the ramp curve — and the data architecture is drawn at the same time as the layout.

Stage 01

Feasibility

Demand case, capacity model, site options and the number the board has to approve.

Stage 02

Design

Layout, material flow, line balance and the data architecture — before concrete.

Stage 03

Procure

Equipment specification, vendor selection, technical negotiation, delivery control.

Stage 04

Build

Civil, utilities and installation supervised against the design, not against the invoice.

Stage 05

Commission

Validation, trial runs, standard work written and the shift trained on it.

Stage 06

Ramp

Rate, yield and OEE driven to plan, then handed to a team that can hold it.

Beyond the plant

A child in Tamil Nadu can finish school without ever meeting an engineer.

The state with India’s largest industrial workforce teaches almost nothing about industry. MADE HERE is our schools programme — six modules on how a factory actually works, taught by practitioners, funded by manufacturers, in the schools around their plants.

Next step

Tell us what the plant is doing that it should not be.

Whether it is a site that has not been built yet or a line that will not hold its gains, the first conversation is the same: what is happening, what it costs, and what it would take to change it.
