One operational brain. Every CXO view.

A planner, a quality lead, a reliability engineer and a CXO seeing the same Factory OS data, the same shift. Replacing the siloed MES, planning and QMS stack they used to switch between.

Who's running the outcomes?

Most enterprise stacks are stitched from siloed systems built to record what already happened. They show data. They don't run the factory. By the time the report reaches the C-suite, the situation has moved on and the shipment is already at risk.

01The report arrives too late.

End-of-day rollups describe a situation that no longer exists.

A morning DHU breach sits inside a mid-day Excel review. Course correction lands next shift, after the damage. Factory OS closes the same loop in minutes.

Three signals.
Three corrections.

Across planning, quality and workforce, Factory OS detects the early signal, recommends the right move, and closes the loop before the situation lands on the leadership desk. Three concrete moments live in production today. Not roadmap. Not pilot.

Plani8 · Planning

Fabric delayed by 2 days. PCD held.

Mill flags a 2-day delay on fabric in-house. Plani8 checks live cutting-room capacity, splits the order across two cutting tables to absorb the delay, and re-sequences a lower-priority order to free that second table. Sewing starts on the original PCD. Buyer ETA never moves.

Tracki8 · Quality

Defects piling at Op 5. Corrected at the source.

Tracki8's line-scoring engine flags an unusual defect cluster at Op 5. The quality manager is alerted, and a parallel machine-issue ticket is auto-routed to the on-floor mechanic. The deviation closes before the next bundle finishes the line.

Skilli8 · Workforce

Operator output dropped 24%. Line rebalanced before the shift ended.

Skilli8 sees a sustained efficiency dip on a specific operator before the line's hourly tally even closes. It surfaces the skill gap, recommends pairing with a senior operator on the parallel station, and tracks recovery. Output is back on target inside the same shift.

Factory OS.
The operational system.

Three modules form the foundation: live view for leadership, live plan for planners, live system for the floor. Live in 145 apparel factories today. Built to replace siloed MES, planning and QMS tools.

Plani8 · Planning

Plani8

5 processes. One connected plan.

The only planning system that links cutting, embellishment, embroidery, sewing and washing into one live plan. Hard pre-production gates, fabric and trim readiness from your ERP, and actuals that recalibrate the strip the moment the floor moves. One workflow from style approval to sewing plan — five processes moving as one.

  • Pre-production as a hard gate, system enforced
  • Material readiness flowing live from WMS / ERP
  • Actuals recalibrate the plan, downstream conflict flagged

Tracki8

Real-time production and order reconciliation

Every piece, every department, every shift. Tracki8 reconciles WIP by size and colorway across the full production path, so a planner sees exactly where an order sits before the buyer asks.

Pro products. For the operators
the rest benchmark against.

Most factories are still trying to see their operations. A smaller class is already compressing them. Pro is built for that class: you ran a custom MES, built an in-house planner, squeezed every drop from your legacy stack. Three specialist agents now attack the 73% of order time no first-generation system was designed to touch, live with the most mature manufacturing groups across India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Indonesia and Vietnam.
