Shop floor meets knowledge graph.

Connect ERP, MES and tribal knowledge so operations, quality and service all run off the same real-time model.

Sound familiar?

Defects without a cause

Quality KPIs are red. But why? The answer lives across three systems that don't talk to each other.

Shift handover = knowledge lost

What the early shift noticed never reaches the late shift. Decision-relevant knowledge evaporates daily.

Key people as bottleneck

Mr. Smith knows how the line really runs. Mr. Smith is 57. What then?

Uncontrolled AI shadow IT

Employees use ChatGPT with production data. Leadership knows — and looks away. For now.

How AIPE solves it

ERP + MES + documents — one knowledge graph

AIPE weaves your system landscape into a searchable, context-aware knowledge network. Every answer cites real sources.

AI agents for quality & maintenance

Automatic KPI monitoring, root-cause analysis, maintenance interval tracking — without manual reports.

Controlled access, less shadow IT

Organization-scoped RBAC governs production-data access. Selected model providers receive relevant request data.

Preserve hands-on knowledge from production and maintenance.

In many manufacturing companies, the most valuable knowledge is not in the ERP but in shift logs, inspection instructions, maintenance records and the heads of long-serving employees. When a key person retires or the shift changes, part of it is lost – and the same mistakes happen again.

AIPE makes this knowledge usable for the long term. Work and inspection instructions, incident reports and machine documentation are stored in files and the wiki and linked in the knowledge graph. Employees ask in chat or by voice and get answers with sources. For production and office computers running older specialist applications, the AIPE Worker takes over recurring tasks directly on the device.

Use cases

Use cases in production, quality and maintenance

Find past fault fixes

How was this fault fixed last time? AIPE searches incident reports and maintenance records and cites the passage.

Learn more

Structure shift handovers

Summarize the shift's notes in chat and save them as a wiki page – the next shift asks instead of searching.

Learn more

Analyze quality data

On the computer, the Worker combines exports from different systems into an Excel analysis you download in chat.

Learn more

Operate older specialist applications

For software without an API, the Worker operates mouse and keyboard step by step – with your approval in “Ask first” mode.

Learn more

Agent for inspection instructions

An agent with your inspection and work instructions answers questions at the workstation and helps with onboarding.

Learn more

Capture experience in conversation

Record interviews with experienced colleagues, get a transcript and summary, and turn them into wiki pages.

Workflow

A recurring fault – before and after

  1. Step 1

    Fault occurs

    Today

    The shift calls the experienced colleague – if he can be reached.

    With AIPE

    Question in chat; AIPE finds earlier reports on the same fault pattern.

  2. Step 2

    Narrow down the cause

    Today

    Paper logs and binders are searched.

    With AIPE

    Knowledge graph and wiki show related machines, parts and measures.

  3. Step 3

    Document the fix

    Today

    An entry in the shift log, often incomplete.

    With AIPE

    A short note in chat; AIPE turns it into a structured report in the wiki.

  4. Step 4

    Pass on the knowledge

    Today

    The knowledge stays with the person who fixed the fault.

    With AIPE

    The next case finds the solution through search and the graph – even on another shift.

Data protection & control

Controlled AI use instead of shadow IT

When employees use personal AI tools, you lose control over design and process data. AIPE provides a shared platform with per-resource permissions, configurable model providers and usage analytics.

  • Roles and sharing per file, agent, wiki page and chat.
  • Worker tasks only after local enablement on the computer; can be switched off at any time.
  • Usage by person, cost center and function, monthly budgets with alerts.
  • Data processing agreement (DPA) online, subprocessors listed transparently.

Relevant connectors

For ERP or MES systems without a dedicated connector, work with exports via the Worker or import documents and knowledge via API and MCP.

From practice

Mid-sized machine builder

A machine builder struggled with manual shift reports, quality data in three systems and knowledge lost to retirements. The case study shows how AIPE was introduced there.

Dependence on single knowledge holders

„We had all the data — in SAP, in MES, in Excel. But nobody had the answers. AIPE changed that."
