Manufacturing software has to reconcile operational technology on the floor with modern data and reporting expectations from the business above it — and increasingly, with carbon and supply-chain disclosure.
Manufacturing sits at the intersection of two systems that were rarely designed to talk to each other: operational technology on the floor, often decades old and built for control rather than reporting, and modern business systems that expect clean, structured data. We build the bridge between them as a deliberate data-architecture problem, not a one-off export script — because the export script is exactly what breaks the first time the reporting requirement changes.
The emerging obligation that's changing this sector fastest is carbon and supply-chain disclosure — CBAM exposure for exporters into the EU chief among them. This is directly continuous with our compliance-platform practice: emissions data that will eventually need to satisfy a regulator or a verifier has to be architected for audit from the point it's first collected on the floor, not reconstructed from operational logs after the fact when the reporting deadline arrives.

Yes — this is one of the more common engagement shapes in manufacturing: bridging operational technology that wasn't built for modern reporting with the business and compliance systems that now need clean data from it.
Yes — this connects directly to our compliance-platform practice. See AI Engineering and our CBAM resource guide for the detail on how we approach embedded-emissions reporting for exporters.
It's usually part of the same engagement, because supply-chain visibility and emissions or compliance reporting draw on overlapping data — vendor, material and production records that need to be architected coherently rather than duplicated across separate systems.
