Partners · AI startups for industry

Your model, our plant.

SOP is the substrate: plan, reality, every stop with a human's reason, work orders, energy and money, one security model, one command door.

The substrate: plan, reality, every stop with a reason

What the substrate holds.

  • Who this page is for — startups with a model or an agent for factories (optimisation, quality, energy, scheduling) and no plant floor of their own.
  • What SOP is — the substrate: plan, reality, every stop with a human's reason, work orders, energy and money, one security model, one command door.
  • The division of labour — we are your arms and legs; you bring the brain.
  • What it replaces — today the work is site by site.

Data with provenance, a live stream

Plant data with provenance in one place, a live stream, and a safe, audited way to act on the plant.

What a model needs, and where it already is.

  • In one place — plan and reality, every stop with a human's reason, work orders, energy and money, on one database.
  • Provenance on every number — on every number in the batch record and in the OEE.
  • A plant with a history — the live cloud plant, with its history.
  • These are what can be shown today, on the running plant.

One security model, one command door

A safe, audited way to act on the plant.

  • One security model, one command door.
  • The audited command path — every command that reaches the plant goes through it, and it is audited.
  • A safe way to act — the third thing a model needs, beside the data and the stream.
  • A door for an agent, and for its data — built on the interfaces the platform already serves.
  • A plant to work against — a sandbox plant with months of history.
  • Read first, or write from day one — open, and settled in the conversation.

Go to market together

Where it goes together.

  • The decision we are after — build on SOP's data and agent door; go to market together.
  • Whose go-to-market — which industrial go-to-market is already yours; many models reach a plant through somebody else's.
  • The shape — open, and settled in the conversation.
