Manufacturing
Smart manufacturing doesn’t stop at the factory.
Industry has accelerated like never before. With the 4.0 paradigm, the digitalisation of processes has transformed every link in the chain: from demand forecasting to managing and planning workforce shifts, through to energy and logistics planning. In this complex landscape, decisions can no longer be made on isolated hunches or past experience. It takes vision, it takes calculation, it takes method.
At Optit, we bring over 15 years of Decision Science experience to manufacturing, energy and consumer goods companies. We don’t provide off-the-shelf software, but bespoke mathematical models and algorithms that let you govern constraints, manage flows and optimise resources over the short, medium and long term.
We look beyond pure efficiency: with the arrival of Industry 5.0 – where human centrality and ethics in the use of AI become cornerstones – we develop solutions that are powerful yet transparent, reliable and adaptive. Through pioneering research projects (among them TUPLES), we explore new synergies between artificial intelligence and human expertise, because algorithms alone are not enough.
We support an industry that knows when to automate and when to listen. An industry that combines efficiency with responsibility, treating every decision as a chance to do not just more, but better.
The impact of our work
Challenges we can guide you through
- Forecasting the hours to be planned (workforce demand)
- Optimised shift planning that respects operational and employment-law constraints
- Optimising the use of limited resources – such as staff and equipment – to meet a given demand or set of specific requirements
- Production and supply-chain flow scheduling
- Optimisation of industrial Energy Management
- Demand forecasting (Forecasting) and operational planning
- Monitoring and anomaly detection across sites and production plants
- Planning and scheduling of complex processes (e.g. Bio-refinery)
- Implementation of Decision Support System platforms for Fault Detection
