Escape pilot purgatory. Run your plants on one governed twin.
70% of Industry 4.0 pilots never scale because the IT/OT last mile is unsolved. PrimusNeo gives you the contextualized layer that ties OEE, ESG, and capex to one live model.
The high cost of fragmentation
Current systems in this sector suffer from deep-rooted structural inefficiencies that PrimusNeo is built to resolve.
IT/OT Last-Mile Fragmentation
A typical mid-size plant runs 200+ devices on competing protocols; data never reaches a contextualized layer, so 70% of Industry 4.0 pilots never scale.
OEE & Downtime Drag
Average plant OEE sits at 60-65% against a world-class 85% benchmark, with unplanned downtime alone costing global manufacturers ~$50B/yr.
Supply-Network Trust Gap
Tier-1 OEMs cannot verify upstream provenance, ESG claims, or quality data from tier-2/3 suppliers without manual audits, blocking digital product passport compliance.
Why PrimusNeo for this sector
Plant-Floor to P&L Twin
Verifiable Capex Cases
Digital Product Passport
Platform layers tailored for you
AMP Spatial OS
Plant-floor digital twin combining CAD, PLC telemetry, MES events, and worker location — the contextualized data layer Industry 4.0 pilots keep failing to build.
NEOS Governance
Programmable approval flows for change control, MOC, supplier qualification, and shop-floor lockout/tagout — replacing email + spreadsheet audit trails.
AZOA Identity
Cross-tier supplier identity so a casting from a tier-3 forge carries verified mill, ESG, and conflict-mineral attestations into the OEM’s MES.
Fractal Engine
Predictive OEE, energy intensity, scrap, and downtime modeling tied to live spatial events, not month-end reports.
“Industry 4.0 didn’t fail — it just hit a coordination wall no point solution can solve. The next $1T of manufacturing value will accrue to whoever owns the contextualized data layer, not the sensors.”

Multi-Plant OEE Governance
A discrete manufacturer with 12 plants unifies MES, PLC, and energy telemetry on PrimusNeo’s twin. OEE, scrap, and Scope 3 emissions flow into NEOS-governed capex committees, replacing 8-pilot purgatory with one operating system that scales across the network.
Key Outcomes
- →IT/OT last-mile resolved across 12 plants
- →OEE lift visible in the same model used by operators
- →Digital product passport ready for EU DPP / CBAM
- →Capex approvals tied to verified twin baselines
