Sense. Plan. Execute.
The Manufacturing Intelligence Platform.
Manufacturing runs on disconnected systems. 70% of CI programs fail to sustain. Planners spend 65% of their time on data, not decisions. Inspectors catch 85% on a good day. SME-Empowerment closes these gaps one platform that senses, plans, and executes in a closed loop.
Manufacturing Runs on Disconnected Systems. It Doesn't Have To.
Our ERP stores transactions. Your quality system records non-conformances. Your planning team rebuilds the forecast in Excel every Monday. None of these systems talk to each other. And none of them close the loop.
The Visibility Gap
The Sustainment Problem Why 70% of CI Programs Fail
The Planning Disconnect
The Integration Gap
Three Products. One Integrated Platform.
EXECUTE
EmpowerOps
Daily Management System
Turn standard work from intention into evidence. Task management, leader standard work, tier meetings, forms, CAPA, and dashboards in one system.
Companies report 80%+ improvement in compliance follow-through in early deployments.
PLAN
Asireon
Autonomous AI Planning System
Replace the manual S&OP cycle. Three AI agents Demand, Supply, and Material that plan continuously, adapt in real time, and execute without the committee.
AI-augmented planning delivers 15-30% MAPE improvement within 12 months.
SENSE
Manvis
AI Vision System
Time studies, TWI standard operating procedures, 5S scoring and standard-work checks, produced from footage you already have.
A study that costs an engineer two to five days by hand takes hours, on every station you have footage for rather than the handful anyone had time to measure.
The Power Is in the Connection
Point solutions produce reports. Integrated systems produce action.
Closed Loop Example
1
Manvis flags a deviation from the standard
On the receiving dock, at 04:18 in the footage.
2
Non-conformance auto-created in EmpowerOps
Assigned to the quality lead with a 48-hour deadline.
3
CAPA tracked to closure
Evidence, root cause, and corrective action documented.
4
Pattern analyzed over time
Defect recurrence is prevented, not just detected.
Without this connection:
Finding recorded, written in a log, sometimes escalated, eventually investigated, root cause forgotten.
