Assessments
One evidence-backed method. Start broad, or start with the question that's in front of you.
Every assessment runs on the same engine, the same evidence rules and the same report standards. If you go on to a full Automation Readiness Assessment, we reuse the evidence you've already supplied, so you aren't asked for it twice.

Automation Readiness Assessment
The full assessment of a proposed automation initiative across fourteen domains, with critical dependencies and evidence-backed findings. First use case: autonomous mobile robots (AMRs). Modules for AS/RS, picking, palletizing, robotic cells, cobots, conveyors and vision are planned.

Focused assessments
One question, answered properly.
Each focused assessment reports on its own subject only. A clean result is about that subject, never a robotics readiness level for the whole operation.
Coverage, roaming, capacity, interference and connectivity for robots, scanners and connected equipment, plus the facility and power conditions that affect them.
