Your production floor is running blind. FlowMaître makes every worker, machine and component visible — in real time, to the centimetre.

WFM — Workforce Management

In a manufacturing hall, knowing where your people are is the beginning of knowing how your process actually works — not how it was designed to work. WFM turns the shop floor from an assumption into an observation.

Key features for manufacturing: spaghetti diagrams · shift analytics · access control for hazardous zones · real-time evacuation

PLM — Production Logistics

Just-in-time only works when you know where the materials actually are. PLM connects real-time inventory positions to your production schedule, eliminating the gap between the plan and the floor.

Key features for manufacturing: kitting & wave picking · MRP-driven auto-replenishment · AGV/forklift coordination · location storage

EIS — Equipment Intelligence

A machine that fails unexpectedly doesn't just cost repair time. It costs buffer stock, rescheduled orders, and the morale of a team that had a plan. EIS reads the early signatures of failure — so you can act before the line stops.

Key features for manufacturing: vibration & temperature baselines · predictive ML alerts · automatic spare parts triggering via PLM

Scenario A — The Missing Subassembly

Line 4 is scheduled to begin final assembly at 14:00. At 13:45, the kitting team cannot locate a batch of critical subassemblies. With FlowMaître PLM, the query takes three seconds: the batch is in bay 7C, moved there during a shift changeover that wasn't logged. Line 4 starts on time.

Scenario B — The Near‑Miss That Didn't Happen

A maintenance technician enters a robotic welding cell during a partial‑stop cycle — a scenario that kills people in metal fabrication every year. The WFM safety module detects the unauthorised zone entry in 200 milliseconds, triggers a line halt, and logs the event. The EHS report writes itself.

"We knew the floor was inefficient. We just couldn't prove it to anyone. After three months with FlowMaître, the spaghetti diagrams showed us routes our people had been walking every day for six years that no one had ever questioned. We cut 28 minutes of walking per worker per shift."

— Production Director, Tier 2 automotive supplier

"Inventory accuracy at 99.5% sounds like a marketing number. I was sceptical. We're now six months in and our safety stock is down 22%. That's real money sitting in the bank instead of on shelves."

— Supply Chain Manager, industrial components manufacturer
