Run IT and OT as one across every plant

Cloud-to-edge orchestration and automation for manufacturing: connect your industrial systems into one operational layer, deploy AI at the edge and scale from pilot to production.

The Challenge

Manufacturers are struggling to turn digital initiatives into plant-wide results

✕

Fragmented IT and OT

PLCs, SCADA, MES and ERP run disconnected, each link a custom integration. No unified view across plants.

↳Data silos
↳Slow and costly integration
✕

Fragile, complex operations

Coverage gaps, layered networks and distributed edge infrastructure are hard to run at scale. Downtime hits production directly.

↳Downtime risk
↳Higher OPEX
✕

Innovation stuck in pilots

AI, IoT and analytics prove value on one line, then stall. Every rollout is rebuilt from scratch for each plant.

↳Slow rollouts
↳Limited business impact

NearbyOne Enterprise Fleet

One platform to run networks, data and applications across every plant

NearbyOne unifies your industrial environments into a single operational layer with full control, automation and operational consistency.

One view across IT and OT

Plant data already lives in SCADA, historians and the gateways that speak to your equipment. NearbyOne doesn't touch the PLC: it runs and manages the applications that consume that data at the edge, in the plant, close to the line. Central operations get one live view across every site, without collapsing the IT/OT separation your architecture depends on.

Resilient and secure operations

As workloads run locally, a lost link to the centre doesn't stop the line. NearbyOne keeps every site patched and reports vulnerability exposure across the estate. It deploys and maintains the security tooling you've standardised on, so the plant with the flaky uplink doesn't run an outdated agent. Network segmentation stays yours; NearbyOne operates within it.

From pilot to production

One plant proves a vision inspection or predictive maintenance use case, then it stays there for years because plant two means starting again. NearbyOne makes it a deployment: defined once, replicated across lines, plants and regions, with one lifecycle for every instance. Proven use cases scale in weeks, not years.

Use cases

Manufacturing use cases enabled by NearbyOne

Deployed and operated across every line and plant from one control plane.

Plant-wide private 5G connectivity

Deploy and manage private 5G/LTE across the plant: radio coverage orchestration indoors and outdoors, SIM and eSIM management at scale, and network slicing with QoS for critical operations.

✓Reliable, low-latency connectivity for machines, sensors and mobile assets
✓Seamless mobility for workers and vehicles across the site

Unified factory data layer

Connect PLCs, SCADA, MES and ERP into one data layer: industrial data is standardised, processed at the edge in real time and made available across the organisation.

✓One live view of operations across production, quality and maintenance
✓Faster integration without custom point-to-point connections

Industrial applications at scale

Deploy containerised industrial applications across edge and cloud with centralised lifecycle management, policy-based governance and multi-site orchestration.

✓From pilot to production in weeks, not months
✓Consistent versions and configuration across every plant

Edge AI on the production line

Run AI inference next to the line: machine-vision quality inspection and predictive maintenance, with models trained centrally and executed at the edge.

✓Defects and anomalies caught in real time, not in the next batch
✓Less unplanned downtime through early detection

Secure industrial operations

Enforce security across connected IT and OT: policy-based enforcement at every site, automated patching and vulnerability management, and isolated workload execution with segmented connectivity.

✓Consistent security posture across all lines and plants
✓Reduced cyber risk without impacting production

Unified observability & control

Monitor infrastructure, applications and networks in real time from centralised dashboards, with root-cause analysis and proactive alerting across all sites.

✓Faster troubleshooting and reduced MTTR
✓No blind spots across distributed plants
