Why iTechDev

We are not generic consultants. We are plant engineers.

We understand OPC-UA protocols, cycle times, OEE and the difference between planned downtime and one that costs you thousands of dollars per hour.

Native ERP-Shop Floor integration

We are not generic consultants. We have connected SAP S/4HANA with MES, SCADA and PLC systems in real plants with 15,000+ employees. We understand OPC-UA protocols, cycle times and shop floor reality.

Built-in regulatory compliance

Every solution we build considers NOM, ISO 9001/14001, IMMEX and SAT requirements from the architecture. It is not an afterthought: traceability and regulatory documentation are part of the design.

Applied industrial AI, not theoretical

Computer vision for quality inspection, predictive maintenance with IoT sensor data, and production optimization with machine learning. ARIA orchestrates everything from a unified platform.

Regulatory compliance

Systems that pass audits, not just user tests

Every solution we build considers Mexican manufacturing regulatory standards from the architecture.

NOM

Mexican Official Standards

Compliance with applicable NOM for your sector: NOM-059-SSA1 (pharma), NOM-251-SSA1 (food), NOM-001-SEDE (electrical). Our systems generate the documentation and traceability required by audits.

ISO 9001

Quality Management

Quality management systems ensuring lot-to-lot traceability, non-conformance control, CAPA and automated documentation to maintain your ISO 9001:2015 certification.

ISO 14001

Environmental Management

Emissions monitoring, energy consumption and industrial waste tracking integrated into your plant dashboards. Automated reports for SEMARNAT and continuous environmental compliance.

IMMEX

IMMEX Program

Temporary inventory control, manufacturing operations reports and compliance with Ministry of Economy obligations. Direct SAP integration for customs traceability.

SAT

Tax Obligations

Automatic CFDI 4.0 generation, foreign trade, payroll and payment supplements. SAP FI/CO integration for real-time tax reconciliation.

Solutions

5 critical problems we solve in your plant

Each solution follows our Problem, Impact, Solution framework to guarantee measurable ROI.

Problem

Your ERP does not talk to your MES

Impact

You lose 15% of productive time manually reconciling data between SAP and the shop floor. OEE reports arrive 24 hours late.

iTechDev Solution

We integrate SAP S/4HANA with your MES (Siemens, Rockwell, AVEVA or custom) via OPC-UA and REST APIs. Real-time OEE dashboards with automatic deviation alerts.

Problem

Manual and subjective quality inspection

Impact

3-5% of production becomes undetected scrap. Customer claims increase and you risk your ISO 9001 certification.

iTechDev Solution

Computer vision with industrial cameras and deep learning models trained on your products. Defect detection in milliseconds with 99.2% accuracy.

Problem

Reactive maintenance that stops lines

Impact

Each hour of unplanned downtime costs between $5,000 and $50,000 USD depending on the line. Without prediction, stops repeat every month.

iTechDev Solution

IoT sensors connected to Azure IoT Hub with predictive maintenance models. Alerts 72 hours before failure to schedule interventions without production impact.

Problem

Managing 5,000+ employees with paper and Excel

Impact

Onboarding takes 2 weeks. Turnover exceeds 30% annually because there is no training visibility or career plans.

iTechDev Solution

SAP SuccessFactors with SAP CPI integration for unified human capital: recruitment, 3-day onboarding, digital training and retention analytics.

Problem

Production planning in spreadsheets

Impact

Demand changes take days to reflect on the floor. You overproduce 12% on average and your finished goods inventory grows uncontrolled.

iTechDev Solution

SAP PP/APO with real-time MRP, intelligent sequencing and scenario simulation. Integration with sales data for demand-driven planning.

Sub-verticals

Experience in every type of manufacturing

Each sub-industry has its own regulations, processes and KPIs. We know them all.

Automotive

Tier 1/2, IATF 16949, VIN-to-component traceability

Food & Beverage

NOM-251, HACCP, lot traceability, shelf life

Pharmaceutical

NOM-059, GMP, CSV validation, COFEPRIS

Electronics

SMT, AOI, component traceability, RoHS

Metal-mechanical

CNC, dimensional control, tool management

Chemical

SEMARNAT, hazardous materials, formulation

ARIA for Manufacturing

AI Agents that understand your plant

ARIA is not a chatbot. It is a platform of specialized agents that speak OPC-UA, read sensor data and understand the difference between scrap and rework. Each agent powers a phase of your plant digitalization cycle.

Discovery Agent

Maps your plant processes, identifies production line bottlenecks, analyzes historical MES/SCADA data and generates a digital maturity assessment with prioritized quick wins.

Build Agent

Generates SAP-MES integrations, configures IoT data pipelines, creates OEE dashboards and scaffolds computer vision modules adapted to your production lines.

QA Agent

Validates data integrity between ERP and MES, runs load tests simulating production peaks, verifies NOM/ISO compliance and audits OT industrial network security.

Deploy Agent

Deploys updates during maintenance windows without affecting production. Automatic rollback on anomalies. Post-deployment monitoring of plant KPIs in real time.

Testimonials

What plant leaders say

iTechDev understood our plant reality from day one. We did not have to explain what OEE is or how MES works — they already knew. The SAP-MES integration they built transformed our production visibility.

Carlos Trevino

Operations Director

Grupo Aceros del Norte

The SuccessFactors implementation for our 15,000 employees across 3 countries was flawless. iTechDev's team handled the complexity of multiple payrolls, local regulations and legacy integrations without a single day of disruption.

Maria Gonzalez

VP of Human Resources LATAM

Mohawk Industries

The computer vision system detected defects our inspectors could not see. In 6 months customer claims dropped 70% and we passed the NOM audit without a single observation. ROI was immediate.

Process

From plant visit to real-time OEE in 3 steps

A process proven in over 12 industrial plants that minimizes disruption and maximizes adoption.

01

Plant Assessment

We visit your plant, map processes, existing systems (ERP, MES, SCADA) and pain points. We deliver a digital maturity assessment with prioritized quick wins and a 12-18 month roadmap.

02

Agile Implementation

Two-week sprints with on-plant demos. We start with a pilot on one production line, validate results with real data and scale to the rest of the plant with confidence.

03

Support & Continuous Optimization

24/7 monitoring of critical systems, defined SLA, AI model updates with new data and system evolution based on production KPIs.

Frequently asked questions

We answer your plant digitalization questions

Can you integrate my existing MES with SAP without replacing it?

Yes. We work with leading MES platforms (Siemens Opcenter, Rockwell FactoryTalk, AVEVA) and build bidirectional integrations with SAP via OPC-UA, RFC, IDocs and REST APIs. If your MES works, we connect it; we do not replace it.

How long does it take to implement real-time OEE in my plant?

A pilot on one production line can be operational in 6-8 weeks. Plant-wide rollout (typically 4-8 lines) takes 3-4 additional months depending on the number of sensors and existing network infrastructure.

What experience do you have with Mexican manufacturing regulations (NOM, IMMEX)?

Extensive. We have implemented traceability systems for NOM-059 (pharma), NOM-251 (food) and IMMEX control for maquiladoras. Our systems automatically generate documentation required by COFEPRIS, SEMARNAT and Ministry of Economy audits.

Does computer vision work with any type of product?

Yes, but it requires specific training. We need 500-2000 reference images of your product (with and without defects). The model trains in 2-3 weeks and achieves 99%+ accuracy in most industrial applications.

Can you work with plants that still use legacy systems (AS/400, spreadsheets)?

It is our most common scenario. We build integration layers that extract data from legacy systems without disrupting them. Migration to modern systems happens incrementally, line by line, without stopping production.

Do you offer 24/7 support for critical plant systems?

Yes. For MES, SCADA and ERP-floor integrations we offer SLA with 15-minute response time for critical incidents, proactive monitoring and 24/7 on-call with engineers specialized in manufacturing.

Your plant already generates data. Let us turn it into decisions.

Schedule a no-cost plant assessment. We visit your operation, identify quick wins and deliver a digitalization roadmap with estimated ROI.
