We unify ERP, WMS, and commerce data into a single governed source of truth -- real-time dashboards, operational KPIs, and reporting your team can run without IT. Los Angeles produces more manufactured goods than any metro in the United States, but the narrative is dominated by entertainment and tech. Northrop Grumman's B-21 Raider program in Palmdale, SpaceX's Hawthorne rocket production, and Boeing's El Segundo satellite operations make the South Bay the densest aerospace corridor in the world. Below that defense-prime layer sits City of Industry — a municipality that is literally nothing but factories — where thousands of small and mid-market manufacturers produce everything from food packaging to precision machined parts under ITAR restrictions they barely understand.
LA's manufacturing base is so fragmented across 12,000+ firms that no single initiative reaches critical mass — digital transformation here happens company by company, with almost no regional coordination or shared infrastructure.
Centralize data from ERP, WMS, CRM, MES, and shop-floor systems into a cloud data warehouse. Automated ETL pipelines keep data fresh and consistent.
Real-time dashboards for revenue, margin, inventory turns, on-time delivery, and production throughput. Accessible on any device, updated automatically.
OEE tracking, cycle time analysis, scrap rate monitoring, and production scheduling optimization. Identify bottlenecks and capacity constraints in real time.
Machine learning models trained on your historical data to forecast demand by product, customer, and channel. Reduce stockouts and overstock simultaneously.
Analytics-driven safety stock calculations, reorder points, and ABC classification. Reduce carrying costs while maintaining service levels.
Empower your team to build their own reports and explore data without IT involvement. Governed data models ensure consistency across all reports.
Inventory all data sources, assess quality, and map relationships. Identify gaps and define the metrics that matter most to your operation.
Design the data warehouse schema and build automated data pipelines. Cloud-based with incremental refresh for near-real-time analytics.
Build executive and operational dashboards in Power BI, Tableau, or Looker. Iterative design with stakeholder feedback at every round.
Deploy forecasting models, anomaly detection, and optimization algorithms. Validate predictions against historical data before production use.
Train your team on dashboards, self-service reporting, and data interpretation. Full documentation and ongoing support.

Power BI, Tableau, Looker, and custom-built dashboards. We recommend based on your existing Microsoft/Google ecosystem, team size, and budget. Power BI is the most common choice for manufacturers already on Microsoft.
First executive dashboards are typically live within 4-6 weeks. Advanced analytics and forecasting models follow in the 2-3 month range. We deliver value incrementally, not all at once at the end.
Yes. If you already have a data warehouse or data lake, we can build on top of it. If not, we\u2019ll set one up -- typically Snowflake, BigQuery, or Azure Synapse depending on your stack.
Data quality is addressed as part of the ETL pipeline -- deduplication, standardization, validation rules, and exception reporting. We don\u2019t just move bad data faster; we clean it on the way in.
Most manufacturers are still running workflows that require a person to touch every exception, every order, every routing decision. AI agents eliminate that bottleneck — not by replacing your people, but by handling the work that was always below their pay grade.
Most manufacturers forecast demand with spreadsheets, gut feel, and last year's numbers adjusted by 5%. ML models trained on your actual order history, seasonality patterns, and market signals replace guesswork with predictions your planning team can act on.
Odoo Maintenance captures work orders, failure reasons, repair times, and equipment history. We build AI models on top of that data to identify failure patterns and recommend maintenance windows before breakdowns occur — no new hardware, no IoT infrastructure required.
Odoo Quality captures inspection results, non-conformances, scrap reasons, and lot traceability across every production order. We build AI models on top of that data to surface defect patterns, predict quality risk, and trigger alerts before scrap accumulates — no cameras, no hardware.
Most manufacturers price by cost-plus formula or by whatever the sales rep negotiated last time. AI pricing models factor in material costs, competitive positioning, customer segment, order size, inventory position, and market conditions — governed by business rules so every price stays within approved boundaries.
When an order hits your system, someone decides which warehouse ships it — usually based on habit, proximity, or whoever answered the phone. AI order routing makes that decision in real time, optimizing across inventory availability, shipping cost, delivery speed, and warehouse workload.
Manufacturers still process thousands of POs, invoices, RFQs, spec sheets, and BOLs manually — reading PDFs, retyping data into the ERP, and fixing the errors that come with it. Document intelligence extracts structured data from unstructured documents automatically, with validation rules that catch errors before they enter your systems.
Your dealers call or email to check stock before placing orders because they can't see what's available. We give them live ATP visibility across all your warehouses — available, allocated, in-transit, and expected replenishment dates — straight from your ERP and WMS.
We govern cloud migration in phases — every dependency mapped, every workload sequenced, every cutover window defined. Zero-downtime migration for manufacturers who can't afford an outage.
Most manufacturing AI projects die in the pilot phase. We deploy AI that integrates into your actual workflows -- demand forecasting, predictive maintenance, pricing optimization, and intelligent routing -- governed by operational data contracts.
Your demand planning process runs on last year\u2019s sales adjusted by a gut-feel percentage. ML models trained on your actual order history, seasonal patterns, and market signals produce forecasts that are measurably more accurate \u2014 and they improve automatically as more data accumulates.
Your legacy system holds critical data that modern applications need -- but it has no APIs, no webhooks, and no modern integration points. We build a REST/GraphQL API layer on top of your legacy system so new applications can access data without touching the core.
Metrotechs starts with the operating questions: which records are trusted, which workflows are manual, which systems own each decision, and where AI can safely improve throughput.
