Build to takt. Audit by VIN.

For OEMs and Tier suppliers — the live data layer, intelligent MES, and quality intelligence that lets you hold takt, satisfy IATF 16949, and run EV programmes on the same plant as ICE.

What our customers tell us

Three pressures every automotive plant lives under.

Pressure 01

Takt-time, with mix complexity rising every quarter.

Line balancing used to be a quarterly review. Now it's a daily one — and the difference between a 38-second takt and a 41-second one is a shift's worth of cars by Friday.

s
Pressure 02

Traceability auditors expect. Effort the floor can't absorb.

IATF 16949 and PPAP don't bend. The evidence chain has to be there, by part, by serial, by operation — and the operators can't be the bottleneck for it.

§
Pressure 03

EV programmes alongside ICE — on the same plant.

Battery pack assembly, e-drive, and inverter lines stood up next to engine lines that still need to ship. New process control, same compliance bar, no second factory.

01 · Live takt control

Hold takt the moment it slips — not the next morning.

Every station, every cycle, every variance to takt — captured at the controller and surfaced where it matters: the andon board, the cell leader, the line manager. The 90-second drift gets caught at second 91.

  • Live cycle-time monitoring per station and shift
  • Andon escalation on first sigma, not third
  • Bottleneck identification by hour, not by week
  • Tied back to OEE, jobs per shift, and downtime cost

Every torque, every weld, every part — by VIN.

Genealogy isn't a separate workflow. The same machine signal that controls the line writes the audit record. By the time the vehicle leaves end-of-line, every operation that touched it is already in the evidence chain.

  • Serial- and VIN-level genealogy across operations
  • Process parameter snapshots per piece, signed
  • IATF 16949 and PPAP-ready evidence in seconds
  • Recall scoping by lot, station, or operator window

03 · Quality at the source

Catch the defect on the line. Not at the customer.

SPC on the process parameters that actually drive the outcome. Drift detected hours before the lab confirms it, with the engineering escalation already drafted by the time the supervisor opens their phone.

  • SPC and Cpk on the parameters that matter
  • Process-side drift detection before lab confirmation
  • Non-conformance routed to engineering automatically
  • Closed-loop CAPA tied to operating context

Case Study · Anonymised

A Tier-1 powertrain supplier ramped a new e-drive line without adding a single auditor.

Telemetry, MES, and SPC scoped, deployed, and validated in eighteen weeks. By the start of customer PPAP, every part on the new line carried its parameter trail by serial — and the IATF surveillance audit closed in a day.

How we engage

From line walk to plant-wide rollout in four phases.

PHASE 01

Line-walk diagnostic

Two days on the floor with line manager, quality, and process. We map stations, controllers, and the metrics that matter.

PHASE 02

Reference design

Connectivity, MES, and SPC blueprint scoped to one line — with a costed deployment plan and validation strategy.

PHASE 03

Pilot line

Single line stood up end-to-end. Throughput, quality, and audit KPIs measured against the pre-deployment baseline.

PHASE 04

Plant rollout

Hand-off to manufacturing engineering. Energymascon stays as the engineering layer for as long as it makes sense.
