Decisions for the world’s most complex plants.

From line-balancing on the floor to maintenance dispatch on the cell, MAIA reads every operational signal across your plants and decides faster than your shift leads can radio it in.

NoteDesigned to integrate with the systems your plant already trusts, MES, SCADA, historian, CMMS, and HRIS. Connector scope is set during pilot kickoff against your stack, not promised in advance.
01 · Operator PainThe cost of decisions made in the dark

Manufacturing runs on judgment calls that cost too much.

The signal exists in your systems. The decision doesn’t. Operators absorb the cost.

02 · Use CasesWhat MAIA proposes

Three operating patterns we run for you.

Each one runs continuously: a signal arrives, MAIA drafts the decision with evidence, the writeback lands in the system your operators already use.

  1. 01 · MFG-LINE-BAL

    Rebalance a line before throughput slips.

    SignalCell L3-WLD spindle vibration trending out-of-band; downstream buffer projected to drain in 11 minutes.
    DecisionFlex two operators from L4 to L3, drop takt by 4%, hold the line for 3 minutes for human accept, then auto-dispatch.
    WritebackMES schedule updated · Slack channel ops-mfg notified · audit chain D-... → S-... → R-...
  2. 02 · MFG-MAINT-DISPATCH

    Dispatch a tech for a fault before the cell stops.

    SignalSensor anomaly on Press 7 sustained 14 minutes; pattern matches 9 prior dispatches that escalated.
    DecisionOpen a work order, dispatch the closest qualified tech (ETA 8 min), pre-stage the part from local stores, queue back-up cell.
    WritebackMaximo work order opened · ServiceNow incident · stores pick ticket
  3. 03 · MFG-CREW-COVER

    Cover a shift gap before the cell stalls.

    SignalTwo certified welders flagged sick within the SLA window; cell L3-WLD throughput projected to drop 22% on the next bank.
    DecisionPage three certified ops within reach, reweight overtime against forecast, hold the assignment for 4 minutes for human accept, then auto-dispatch.
    WritebackWorkday shift created · MS Teams channel ops-mfg notified · audit chain D-... → S-... → R-...
03 · ComplianceBuilt for operators who answer to inspectors

Audit-grade. Sovereign-ready.

Built so your auditor doesn’t have to take our word for it. Every decision lineage is replayable end to end.

Decision lineage.

Every dispatch links signal → rule → confidence → human-on-loop, replayable for post-shift and auditor queries.

Tenancy isolation.

Per-plant and per-business-unit tenancy; no cross-tenant inference, ever.

IATF 16949 / ISO 9001-friendly logs.

Audit-grade logs aligned to your QMS reporting requirements; hand to your quality team without re-formatting.

OSHA / NIST data classification.

Operational data classification and retention configurable per regulator.

04 · PilotTwo weeks · One workflow · Real outputs

See it on your data in two weeks.

One workflow, one tenant, one decision pattern. Real outputs by week two — or it’s free.

  1. Scope

    A typical manufacturing pilot covers one plant and two to three flows from {line balancing, maintenance dispatch, crew coverage, quality escalation}. We connect to your MES, CMMS, and HRIS via existing APIs and avoid touching your safety-critical systems of record beyond read-write fields agreed in the SOW.

    01
  2. Success

    Concrete, measured against your own baseline. Signal-to-decision under 200ms on in-scope flows in the sandbox. First production writeback to your MES or CMMS by week three. A measurable reduction in same-shift dispatch error rate, with the baseline you bring on day one.

    02
  3. Timeline

    Week 1, connectors and tenancy. Weeks 2–3, sandbox decisions and first writeback to a non-production tenant. Weeks 4–8, expansion to two more flows. Weeks 9–12, production graduation review with your quality and IT leads.

    03
  4. First Decision

    Target, the first MAIA-authored decision lands in your MES or CMMS within 21 days of kickoff. We track this against the SOW and surface the milestone to both teams in real time.
