Design → Execute → Improve

Close the Loop in Manufacturing

Most plants don’t lack tools—they lack connection across Design → Execute → Measure → Improve. We connect Teamcenter (design governance), Opcenter (paperless execution & finite-capacity scheduling), and Insights Hub (Overall Equipment Effectiveness, OEE, and telemetry) into a closed loop: issues found in production flow back to engineering/planning as structured change, so each build gets faster and more reliable. Start with your loudest constraint—Design (late changes), Execute (compliance/On-Time In-Full, OTIF), or Measure (visibility/yield)—and engage our services team to implement, validate, host, or optimize your environment. We handle software licensing and implementation end-to-end.

What We Do

Connected Manufacturing is a Siemens-focused partner for mid-market Pharma/Life Sciences, Medical Devices, Electronics/Semiconductor, and Industrial manufacturers. We resell Siemens software and provide innovative implementation approaches that create dynamic operating environments: Teamcenter PLM to govern the product definition,Opcenter MES & APS to execute/schedule with traceability, and Insights Hub to standardize OEE—so issues feed back to design for first-time-right manufacturing and Conversational AI to make sense of data and drive decisions when are where they will make the most impact.

Our Closed-Loop:
Design → Execute → Measure → Improve

Great manufacturing isn’t linear—it’s a loop. We help you Design in Teamcenter, Execute with Opcenter (MES · APS) and Insights Hub, Measure results instantly with Conversational AI, and Improve through services that implement, optimize, host, and analyze so every cycle gets better.
Use the cards below to dive into the area that matches your top constraint.

How the Closed-Loop Works

Conversational AI for Manufacturing

Ask Questions. Get Answers. Accelerate Decisions.

Our conversational AI connects to MES, ERP, and QMS so plant teams can ask in plain English and get live, chart-ready answers—no dashboards, queries, or waiting. From yield to downtime to deviations, insight is now as fast as the question.

Software Value

table 5
Teamcenter PLM


Multi-CAD + JT reviews, EBOM governance with variants/effectivity, formal ECR/ECO, supplier collaboration → fewer late changes, cleaner releases.


table 4
Opcenter MES & APS


Paperless execution, genealogy, Part 11-ready records, finite-capacity scheduling → audit-ready compliance and feasible promises.


table 2
Insights Hub


Standard OEE & telemetry with clear loss trees → faster root cause and prioritized improvement.

Conversational AI

 

Simple Generative AI chat with your own secure data & easy reporting to allow fast fact-based decision-making at every level of the organization.

 

Measure = Our Product

Conversational AI Manufacturing Data Intelligence™
What it is

A RAG-based conversational layer over your MES/ERP/SCADA/PLM—ask plain-English questions and get answers, charts, or summaries in seconds. No data lake, no dashboards, no SQL.

What it’s not

Not a predictive/control AI—no auto-tuning or vision inspection. It retrieves, correlates, and summarizes existing operational data with context and speed. 

Why leaders love it

Instant access, hours-to-deploy per source, low TCO, and usable by everyone from the line lead to the VP.

Services Value - Our customer success & professional services

make outcomes stick: discovery → roadmap → pilot → rollout → run-state operations. We handle integrations, validation/compliance, performance tuning, monitoring/SLOs, upgrades, and quarterly value reviews—so the benefits of Teamcenter, Opcenter, Insights Hub, and Conversational AI compound instead of fading after go-live. Our services offerings keeps environments validated, upgraded, hosted (if needed), and continually optimized.
