Manufacturing IoT analytics for Utah — OEE, downtime, quality, shop-floor
S2 Data Systems builds manufacturing intelligence platforms for Utah operators across the Wasatch Front and beyond — real-time OEE, downtime root-cause analytics, quality intelligence, and shop-floor dashboards driven by sensor data, MES, and ERP. Hardware-agnostic. Built on the customer's own cloud account.
What we build
Real-time OEE
Live availability × performance × quality calculated from machine telemetry and operator inputs.
Downtime root-cause
Classify and attribute downtime by reason, work center, shift, and operator — with drill-throughs.
Quality analytics
Correlate defects to upstream process variables — temperature, pressure, recipe deviation, batch attributes.
Shop-floor dashboards
Andon-style live displays plus role-based dashboards for supervisors, plant managers, and execs.
MES / ERP integration
Joins with SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Infor, and MES platforms (Plex, Aegis, Critical Manufacturing).
Predictive quality
ML on process data that flags impending out-of-spec batches in time to adjust setpoints.
Reference stack
Outcomes our Utah clients see
- 10-25% improvement in OEE within the first year
- Downtime classification at the cause level instead of the symptom level
- Defect rate reductions of 20-50% on instrumented lines
- Common KPIs across multi-plant operations for the first time
- Justified capacity decisions backed by real-time data
Frequently asked questions
Do we need MES installed first?
No. Many Utah manufacturers run on a mix of PLC + SCADA + spreadsheets. S2 starts with whatever instrumentation exists and adds MES-equivalent capabilities incrementally if a full MES isn't justified.
How do we handle multiple plants with different equipment?
Per-plant data sources land in a common warehouse with a unified ISA-95 model. Equipment-specific transformations happen at ingest; analytics work against the unified model. This is the only sustainable approach for multi-plant operators.
What dashboarding tool should we use?
Depends on your existing investment. We integrate with Power BI, Domo, Looker, Tableau, and Grafana. For shop-floor displays, Grafana or a custom React app is often best; for executives, Power BI or Domo.
