Yield analysis, regulatory-compliant production data collection, ERP go-lives, and the end of line labeling and integration work that every vendor on the project treats as someone else's job.
The systems I know are the mid-market workhorses: Infor M3 and Factory Track, CAT2 on the MES side, BarTender and LabelView for labeling, and the Microsoft Power Platform (Power Apps, Power Automate, Power BI) for the homegrown layer every plant actually runs on.
The brands are not the point. The failure modes are the same everywhere, and the failure modes are what I know.
Two weeks, remote. I review your data migration, shop floor data collection, labeling, and integration risk, and hand you a ranked punch list before cutover finds the problems for you. No hourly meter, no scope creep, no obligation afterward.
For when the line is not shipping, the ERP partner blames the labeling vendor, and the labeling vendor blames the data. I sit in exactly that gap. Free 30 minute triage call first; if it is not my kind of problem, I will say so and point you somewhere useful.
Remote first. Onsite negotiable for the Carolinas.
I also train teams on using AI coding and agent tools (Claude, Codex, and the Copilot ecosystem) for production support work: not chatbots, just getting real work out of the harnesses. Ask if that is relevant to you.
A go-live date, a labeling job that will not print, an integration nobody will own. One sentence is enough to start.
