Help Us Validate Our Production Monitoring System Across New Industries
Idea8 is selecting a small number of non-garment manufacturing facilities in Sri Lanka to test how our production monitoring system adapts to different machines, processes and production environments.
We are particularly interested in food production, packaging, printing, plastics, electronics, metalworking, assembly and other machine-based industries.
What the system can validate
These are the platform capabilities placed under evaluation during the pilot. Results are established through validation, not promised in advance.
- Real-time machine status monitoring
- Production counting
- Cycle-time measurement
- Idle-time identification
- Operator identification
- Machine utilisation reporting
- Production-line visibility
- Machine-health monitoring
- Maintenance alerts
- Management dashboards
What participating factories receive
- Pilot installation on selected machines
- Factory-specific production dashboard
- Direct engineering support from Idea8
- Pilot performance report
- Recommendations for wider implementation
- Preferential commercial pricing after validation
What Idea8 requires
- Management commitment
- Access to selected machines
- A responsible factory coordinator
- Basic production information
- Permission to compare system results with factory records
- Structured feedback during the programme
- Agreement on whether the case study is public, anonymised or confidential
