The Integrated Engineering Advantage
PlantPulse — Industrial Cloud Platform
Three tiers. One integrated stack. From data visibility to predictive AI.
Rockwell, Siemens, and Wonderware capabilities at a fraction of the cost — delivered as a managed service on RAIISS-hosted Azure. Your data is always portable in standard formats.
The Problem
Your shop floor runs on spreadsheets and whiteboards. Production data is trapped in silos. Manual OEE calculations take hours. Downtime tracking is guesswork. SPC charts get printed and filed away. Your ERP has no idea what's happening on the floor. Enterprise MES quotes come in at $1-3M with multi-year implementations and perpetual licensing fees.
The Solution
PlantPulse is a managed cloud industrial platform delivered in three tiers. Start with Tier 1 for basic data visibility (bundled with FlowBridge), move up to Tier 2 for full MES, SPC, CMMS, and MOM capabilities, then unlock Tier 3 to layer IntelliInsight AI analytics on top. Each tier builds on the last. Managed service model — RAIISS hosts, maintains, and scales the platform; your data stays portable in standard formats. An Enterprise tier is available on request for customers who require customer-hosted deployment and code ownership.
The Three Tiers
Each tier builds on the one below. Start where your maturity is today, move up when you're ready. Every tier runs on the same integrated engineering stack.
Data Visibility
The entry tier — bundled with every FlowBridge deployment.Get your industrial data into the cloud, view it in tables, filter it, and export to Excel. Simple, fast, and always available. Required to run FlowBridge — without Tier 1, the edge agent has nowhere to send its data.
- Cloud data storage for every FlowBridge source
- Web-based tabular views with filtering and sorting
- Excel / CSV export for any dataset
- User authentication and role-based access
- Mobile-responsive UI
- Historical data retention (configurable)
Operations Platform
Full MES, SPC, CMMS, and MOM — built on your Tier 1 data.Turn your plant data into a full operations platform. Real-time OEE dashboards, automated downtime tracking with Pareto analysis, statistical process control with out-of-control alerts, computerized maintenance management, work order routing, and full lot traceability. A cheaper alternative to Rockwell FactoryTalk, Siemens Opcenter, and AVEVA Wonderware — delivered on your own data, on your own cloud.
- Real-time OEE dashboards (availability, performance, quality)
- Automated downtime tracking with reason codes and Pareto charts
- Statistical Process Control — X-bar, R, Cp/Cpk, out-of-control alerts
- CMMS: work orders, scheduling, routing, preventive maintenance
- MOM: production scheduling, labor tracking, shift handoffs
- Full lot traceability and genealogy reporting
- Quality management: inspections, non-conformance, CAPA
- ERP integration (SAP, Oracle, Dynamics 365, custom REST)
- FDA 21 CFR Part 11 compliant electronic signatures
- Power BI embedded dashboards for leadership
Intelligent Operations
Everything in Tier 2, plus IntelliInsight AI analytics on top.The complete offering. IntelliInsight layers predictive AI on top of every Tier 2 capability: predictive maintenance, anomaly detection, process drift identification, automatic CMMS work order generation from predictive signals, and natural-language querying of your operations data. This is where data visibility, operations, and intelligence converge.
- Everything in Tier 1 and Tier 2
- Predictive maintenance triggered from equipment signals
- Anomaly detection across process, quality, and throughput
- Process drift identification before quality escapes
- Auto-generated CMMS work orders from predictive signals
- Natural-language queries on operations data
- Pattern recognition across historical and real-time data
- 10 built-in AI prompt modes for operations analysis
- Domain-specific AI tuned to your plant and your data
Included Across All Tiers
Every PlantPulse deployment — regardless of tier — includes these foundational capabilities.
How We Compare
Same outcomes. Radically different delivery model.
| Dimension | Enterprise MES (Rockwell, Siemens, Wonderware) | PlantPulse |
|---|---|---|
| Deployment timeline | 18-24 months (Rockwell, Siemens) | 2-6 months, Tier 2 full MES |
| Up-front investment | $1M – $3M (plus licensing) | $75K – $350K depending on tier |
| Data portability | Vendor-controlled, export fees, long-term retention | Managed service with standard-format export, no data lock-in |
| AI capabilities | Bolt-on module, extra license | Native IntelliInsight in Tier 3 |
| Customization | Vendor change orders, $$ and $$ delay | Angular + .NET source you can extend |
| Vendor lock-in | High — proprietary stack and contracts | None — open standards, portable data |
