FAQ

Manufacturing questions.

Can Relic modernize MES and connect OT without stopping production?+

We use plant-by-plant waves, shadow mode and clear cutover windows so OEE is protected while the connected factory comes online.

How do you improve OEE and reduce downtime?+

Real-time telemetry, quality analytics and predictive maintenance, with operators and reliability engineers in the design loop.

What is a supply-chain control tower in practice?+

End-to-end visibility, exception prediction and scenario simulation across suppliers, plants and logistics, not another dashboard nobody trusts.

Do you support Siemens, Rockwell and SAP shopfloor stacks?+

Yes. We integrate leading OT/IT platforms and add edge/cloud layers where they create measurable lift.

How do connected worker programs land with the frontline?+

Mobile/AR tools, simple UX, offline capability and training, measured by adoption and productivity, not licenses purchased.
