“My OEE from the plant and from finance never match — I don't know which to trust.”
SCIKIQOne governed OEE, reconciled across MES and ERP, with lineage to every source.

Run the plant on one live number
Unify ERP, MES, plant historians and supply-chain data into one governed view — then let SCIKIQ explain what moved, why, and act on it before the next shift.
01Where it hurts
The things your plant managers actually say
Every one of these is a real question a manufacturer could not answer from their own data. SCIKIQ turns each into a governed answer — and an action.
“By the time we traced the defect to a supplier batch, we'd shipped 3,000 units.”
SCIKIQThe graph links defect → lot → supplier in seconds, and an agent quarantines it.
“We're stocked out on A-items and sitting on 90 days of C-items. Every quarter.”
SCIKIQLive A/B/C balancing across plants; an agent rebalances stock and reorder points.
“Our planners find out about a constraint on delivery day, not planning day.”
SCIKIQConstraints surface in the plan; an OTIF agent re-sequences before the miss.
“We only find out a supplier is a problem when production stops.”
SCIKIQVendor signals in the graph flag risk early; procurement is alerted automatically.
“We know revenue by product. We've no idea which are profitable after scrap and freight.”
SCIKIQTrue cost-to-serve per SKU after scrap, rework and freight — as a data product.
Three kinds of data, one governed graph — SCIKIQ fuses live IIoT signals, systems of record, and the documents in between.

02The four layers
Four layers. Each answers a harder question.
Enterprise 360 tells you what happened. The knowledge graph tells you why. The copilot explains it in plain language. The agent factory does something about it — on your manufacturing data.
01
Layer 1 · Enterprise 360
What is happening?
Unify machine, order, quality and inventory data across ERP, MES and historians into one real-time plant view — so operations and finance work from the same OEE.
OutcomeOperational efficiency
02
Layer 2 · Knowledge Graph
Why is it happening?
Trace the relationships between machines, batches, suppliers and orders to find the root cause behind a number that moved — with the exact source of every fact.
OutcomeRoot cause & traceability
03
Layer 3 · AI Copilot
Tell me, in plain language
Let a plant manager ask about OEE, scrap or a late order in plain language — answered from governed data with full lineage, not a spreadsheet.
OutcomeFaster decisions
04
Layer 4 · Agent Factory
Don’t just tell me — fix it
Turn answers into action. Agents recover downtime, quarantine defects, defend OTIF and rebalance inventory on their own — every action logged in the source system.
OutcomeRevenue & margin protection
03The outcome
What manufacturers get
Proven on real plants across process and discrete manufacturing.
20-40%Higher throughput and asset utilisation
30%Less unplanned downtime
25%Lower scrap and rework cost

The engineers who deploy this
SCIKIQ Certified Data and AI Engineer runs a specialisation for this sector — the same value chain, data landscape and constraints as this page, taught as hands-on labs with timed assessments and two end-to-end capstones.
Which of those sounds like your Monday morning?
We would love to think through it with you — no pitch, no form maze.
Frequently asked questions
How does SCIKIQ improve OEE across multiple plants?
SCIKIQ unifies MES, historians, ERP and quality systems into one governed Factory 360, so availability, performance and quality are calculated from a single agreed definition rather than per-plant spreadsheets. Once the definition is shared, downtime and scrap can be compared across sites and agents can act on the gaps.
Do we have to move plant data to the cloud first?
No. SCIKIQ connects to plant historians, MES and ERP where they already run, including on-premise systems, and governs the data in place. There is no rip-and-replace migration before you get a working view.
How long before a manufacturing 360 view is live?
Typical deployments reach a live 360 view in about 60 days. Most manufacturers start with one plant or one line, prove the numbers against what the team already trusts, then expand.
