◆ What we do

Built for the floor, ready for the auditor.

We help manufacturers modernize how they run — connecting machines, data, and people without compromising on quality or compliance. Engage us for the whole journey or just the part you're stuck on.

1

Shop-Floor Software

Custom production tracking, and operator tools designed around how your line actually works — not a generic template.

2

OT / IT Integration

Connect PLCs, sensors, and machines to your ERP and cloud, so data flows from the floor to the front office in real time.

3

ISO 9001 Excellence

Software that builds quality management into daily work: digital traceability, document control, and audit-ready records that keep you compliant and certification-ready.

4

Data & Analytics

Turn machine and process data into dashboards and OEE metrics that tell you what to fix and where you're losing money.

5

Automation & AI

Practical automation and AI applied where it pays off on the line.

6

"Fractional" Quality Manager

Senior technical guidance on architecture, vendor management, and quality trade-offs without the full-time hire.

◆ Products

Tools we're brewing.

Alongside client work, we're building our own products for manufacturers. They're on the way, check back soon.

◆ How we work

Sketch. Brew. Ship.

A simple loop that keeps things moving and keeps you in the room for every decision.

  1. OP 10

    Sketch

    We dig into the problem, map the idea, and agree on what "done" looks like.

  2. OP 20

    Brew

    Design and build in tight weekly cycles, with something to look at every Friday.

  3. OP 30

    Ship

    We launch to production, measure what matters, and harden the rough edges.

  4. OP 40

    Iterate

    Real usage drives the next round — we refine, extend, and hand off cleanly.

◆ Who we are

We loved making things. We didn't love everything it took to make them.

We spent over a decade in manufacturing, and we loved the satisfaction of building something real. What we didn't love was all the friction around the work: the spreadsheets duct-taped to processes, the data trapped on the floor, the systems that fought you instead of helping. So we went and learned to fix it, switching careers to software engineering to build quality management and traceability systems for various industries.

sketchbrew is what came out of that: technology built by people who know what a production line demands and what it takes to keep quality systems compliant and audit-ready. We stay deliberately small, which means the people you meet are the people who do the work — no account managers, no juniors on your dime, just straight answers and software that ships.
