The company’s solution consists of several modules (Digital Assistants) that allow, among other things, to automatically generate and track optimal production schedules, optimize raw material and parts inventory, maintain full traceability and perform simulations for various possible scenarios on the production floor. These capabilities allow organizations that choose to work with the Plataine’s product to set and meet new production standards, optimize current-day production, predict long-term and mid-term processes, manage organizational investments, improve productivity, and make smarter and more efficient business decisions in real-time.
Due to remarkable achievements in the field, Plataine recently won the Frost & Sullivan’s Global Technology Innovation Leadership Award for 2021 and Innovation Awards from other international organizations.

The service is intended primarily for medium to large organizations in the manufacturing industry.
