From Signals to Verified Outcomes
AI agents that close the loop in advanced manufacturing — triaging alarms, investigating root causes, and resolving issues autonomously. Not dashboards. Not chatbots. Agents that do the work.
What happens when operations run on agents
*Aggregated across our global portfolio of Tier 1 semiconductor and hardware OEMs.
THE PROBLEM
Data-Rich. Action-Poor.
Operations teams are flooded with data, alerts, and dashboards but turning that data into action still depends on operators stitching together context across systems.
Alarm Fatigue
Operators face 10–50 alarms every 10 minutes. Critical signals get buried in noise, leading to delayed responses and missed events.
Tribal Knowledge Loss
Decades of operational expertise lives in operators' heads, not in systems. When they leave, the knowledge leaves with them.
Siloed Data
SCADA, MES, FMS, historians, and chat logs don't talk to each other. Problems solved at one site never benefit another.
Not dashboards. Not chatbots. Goal-oriented agents that autonomously pursue operational objectives within your defined boundaries.
SOLUTIONS
Three Workstreams. One Platform.
Each workstream can be deployed independently or together for comprehensive operational transformation.
Alarm Management
From noise to signal The agent monitors alarm feeds in real time, assembles triage packets from SCADA, maintenance history, and investigation blueprints, then classifies, resolves, or escalates — autonomously. Expected Outcomes - 70–85% reduction in alarms requiring operator attention - Automated triage packets with root cause analysis - Auto-resolution of nuisance alarms with documented reasoning
Predictive Maintenance
Fix it before it breaks Analyzes alarm patterns and continuous process variables to detect failure precursors days or weeks before breakdowns, generating maintenance recommendations with supporting evidence. Expected Outcomes - Earlier detection of developing failure modes - Shift from reactive to condition-based maintenance - Extended equipment life through optimal timing - Works with existing SCADA data
Knowledge Consolidation
Expertise that never retires Systematically captures tribal knowledge into structured investigation blueprints that the AI uses — and improves — with every alarm. A compounding knowledge asset for your organization. Expected Outcomes | 30–50+ investigation blueprints per system - Dramatically accelerated operator onboarding - Resilience against retirement-driven knowledge loss Cross-site knowledge transfer at scale - Cutdown on blockers before they happen
