Manufacturing is the frontier of OT/IT convergence. Equipment networks, sensor reliability, production data, predictive maintenance. Consult Saksham brings 12 years advising discrete and process manufacturers on industrial software. The practice helps teams bring plant-floor visibility into data systems without destabilizing 24/7 operations.
The practice focuses on three manufacturing challenges: OT-IT convergence (where operational technology and IT systems speak different languages), MES modernization (where legacy systems constrain production agility), and predictive maintenance (where equipment reliability directly impacts revenue).
Sensor networks, edge computing, secure equipment communication. Consult Saksham has built systems that bring manufacturing data into digital ecosystems without disrupting plant-floor operations.
Equipment reliability, sensor fusion, degradation models. The practice helps manufacturers pick AI use cases where downtime prevention directly improves OEE and production output.
The practice ships alongside manufacturers. Consult Saksham operates with direct experience in MES systems, equipment networks, and production scheduling.
Three to four weeks. Principal-led platform, data, and delivery review with a written plan.
Monthly retainer at the right cadence for the stage. Weekly call, hire panels, board prep.
Build, buy, partner across the Manufacturing-relevant use cases. Governance and economics included.
Ten to fifteen business days. Investor memo, 100-day plan, direct readout.
Thirty facilities. Thirty different ways of tracking production. Corporate had no real-time view of output, quality, or downtime. Monthly reports arrived three weeks late and nobody trusted the numbers.
Saksham designed an IoT-backed visibility platform that standardized data collection across all facilities without replacing existing PLCs or SCADA systems. Real-time dashboards went live facility by facility over sixteen weeks. Unplanned downtime dropped as patterns became visible for the first time.
The first conversation is thirty minutes. By the end of it, the shape of the engagement is clear.
