Manufacturing

Your production floor runs on data. Your decisions run on last month's report.

CorrDyn builds the data infrastructure that connects shop floor sensors, ERP systems, and quality databases into dashboards your operations team checks every morning.

Common Challenges

The data problems we solve in manufacturing are specific, recurring, and well-understood from years of delivery.

Shop floor data locked in machine controllers

Programmable logic controllers (PLCs), industrial communication servers, and SCADA systems capture everything that happens on the production line. Getting that data into a format anyone can analyze requires custom extraction that nobody has time to build.

ERP reporting requires IT tickets or outdated tools

Your ERP holds decades of production data. Extracting a simple yield report means filing a request with IT or running a legacy report that takes 20 minutes and breaks if someone changes a field.

Quality data tracked on paper or disconnected spreadsheets

Inspection records, batch logs, and statistical process control data live in spreadsheets, paper forms, or standalone databases. Tracing a quality issue back to a machine, shift, or raw material lot takes hours of manual assembly.

No path from IoT investment to production insights

The company invested in sensors and connectivity. Data flows into historians and log files. But nobody has built the layer that turns raw machine telemetry into the overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), yield, and throughput numbers that plant managers need.

Our Approach

How CorrDyn works with manufacturing companies.

01The Data Problem in Manufacturing

Manufacturers generate more operational data than almost any other industry. Every machine cycle, every sensor reading, every quality check, every batch record creates data. The problem is not generation. It is access.

Your machines produce gigabytes of telemetry every day, but that data sits in controllers, historians, and log files that only automation engineers can touch. Your ERP holds years of production records, but getting a yield report means filing an IT ticket or waiting for a legacy report to run. Your quality team tracks inspections in spreadsheets that nobody connects back to the line. The data exists. The infrastructure to use it does not.

02What CorrDyn Builds for Manufacturers

Real-time production monitoring. IoT data pipelines that ingest sensor data at millisecond intervals — fast enough to capture individual machine cycles — store it in time series databases, and render it in dashboards your engineering team checks daily. At one biotech manufacturer, these pipelines process over a billion sensor readings per day across 60+ machines. The same architecture scales to any production environment where machines generate data faster than your team can consume it.

Operational dashboards from legacy ERP data. We connect to your ERP — whether it is SAP, Oracle, JD Edwards, or another system — and build transformation layers that surface the metrics plant managers actually need. At an industrial distributor, we built automated reporting on warehouse productivity, sales orders, and fulfillment efficiency. At a commercial laundry service, we assessed production output tracking, inventory management, route optimization, and chemical usage across two plant facilities.

Quality analytics and traceability. Batch-level data pipelines that connect raw machine output to quality outcomes. When a failure pattern emerges in sensor data, your team sees it in the dashboard, not in a monthly report. We have built these systems for robotic arm analysis, vision system analytics, and statistical process control tracking.

ML infrastructure for manufacturing. For manufacturers ready to move beyond dashboards, we build the data preparation layer that makes machine learning possible: feature engineering pipelines, labeled training datasets, and model deployment infrastructure for predictive maintenance, defect detection, and process optimization.

03Why Manufacturers Choose CorrDyn

Manufacturing data is CorrDyn's deepest area of experience. We understand the gap between what IoT vendors promise and what production teams actually need. We have worked with PLC data, SCADA historians, legacy ERPs, and the organizational dynamics of plant teams that are skeptical of new tools until they see them produce useful numbers. We start with a working prototype on real production data, not a slide deck about what is possible.

Frequently Asked
Questions

What types of manufacturing data does CorrDyn work with?
We work with PLC sensor streams, SCADA historian data, ERP production records from systems like SAP, Oracle, and JD Edwards, quality inspection databases, and environmental monitoring systems. Our longest manufacturing engagement involves 60+ IoT machines generating over a billion sensor readings per day.
Can CorrDyn connect our existing ERP to modern dashboards?
Yes. We have direct experience extracting and transforming data from legacy ERPs including JD Edwards, SAP, and Oracle. We build extraction layers that run alongside your ERP without disrupting production operations — no migration required.
How does CorrDyn approach IoT data at manufacturing scale?
We build flexible ingestion pipelines that handle sensor data arriving every few milliseconds — fast enough to capture individual machine cycles. Data flows into time series storage and renders in dashboards that manufacturing engineers use daily. We have operated these pipelines at over a billion readings per day for years.
What production KPIs can CorrDyn help us track?
Overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), yield, throughput, output per labor hour, scrap rate, cycle time, statistical process control metrics, and equipment utilization. The specific KPIs depend on your operation, but we have built dashboards for discrete, process, and batch manufacturing across multiple clients.
Does CorrDyn help with predictive maintenance or machine learning for manufacturing?
Yes, but we start with the foundation. Most manufacturers need clean, accessible, well-structured data before ML is viable. We build the sensor pipelines, data quality layer, and feature engineering infrastructure first. At a Fortune 500 life sciences conglomerate, we developed baseline ML models for image classification and time series prediction after building that foundation.
