The Orbit Method

Ground

See the floor as it really is.

We spend time on your floor, across shifts, and inside your systems. We map how work actually happens against how the SOP says it does. Changeovers get timed, handovers get watched, and every point where data stops moving gets recorded.

Much of what matters is not in any system. It is in the workaround a supervisor invented years ago that everyone now depends on, and in the reason the second shift does something differently from the first.

Map

A roadmap with a business case.

What to fix first, what to build, configure or buy, what each phase costs and what it returns, sequenced by impact and dependency rather than by what is easiest to sell.

This phase ends with a document your own engineers could execute. That is deliberate: a roadmap that only works while we hold it is not a roadmap.

Build

Engineered for your floor.

Machine connectivity, a unified data layer and digitised workflows across the functions the roadmap prioritised, integrated with your existing ERP and MES rather than replacing them.

We release in stages so each one earns its keep before the next begins. Adoption is designed here, not afterwards: entry points are chosen for the conditions operators work in, and tested on the line before go-live.

Sustain

Until the floor owns it.

Go-live is the midpoint. We train supervisors and operators on the line, rebuild the daily management routine around what the system shows, tune it against real use and measure against the baselines taken before we started.

We stay through at least one full business cycle, including a month-end, an audit and a shutdown, because those are the moments a system reveals what it cannot do.
