KMS Technology acquires Addepto. Read the Full Press Release
KMS helps manufacturers eliminate data silos, automate quality processes, to modernize operations for smarter, more resilient supply chains.
As manufacturing leaders bridge the gap between legacy operations and next-generation technology, KMS provides solutions that drive real business outcomes:
Manufacturing organizations face growing pressure to produce higher-quality products faster and at a lower cost, all while managing increasingly complex, globally distributed operations. Without intelligent systems connecting their data, processes, and people, manufacturers face compounding risk: quality failures, compliance gaps, costly rework, and engineering teams buried in manual effort rather than driving innovation.
Engineering knowledge spread across PLM, ERP, CAD, MES, and legacy platforms creates invisible bottlenecks that slow every decision from commissioning to quality review.
Inaccurate or incomplete data compromise AI infrastructure and decision-making, and. The risks of data breaches increase as factories become more digitized.
Manual testing, inspection, and validation workflows are not just inefficient, but a direct source of quality and compliance risk.
Managing hundreds of suppliers and thousands of engineering files across plants creates compounding inconsistencies that break downstream workflows and delay go-live.
Without a connected digital thread from raw material to shipment, isolating faulty batches and responding to quality events is slow, expensive, and can damage reputation.
Partners in Manufacturing:
As manufacturing leaders bridge the gap between legacy operations and next-generation technology, KMS partners to bring solutions that drive real business outcomes:
Worker & Asset Protection
Supply Chain Intelligence and Traceability
Quality and Process Optimization
Engineering Data and Knowledge Management
Digital Twin and Virtual Commissioning
Manufacturing Data Platform
Complex manufacturing environments require custom solutions, and KMS partners with SAS to give teams continuous, real-time visibility into worker safety conditions, as well as products and asset handling.
With computer vision and predictive intelligence, we enable manufacturers to detect hazardous conditions before incidents occur and predict equipment failures before they cause downtime or injury.
With customizable dashboards and risk tolerance parameters, our Worker Safety and Vision Intelligence Solution are tailored to your environment.
Achieve, safer, more efficient conditions and move from a reactive to a proactive safety model. Flag anomalies, intervene early, maintain compliance, and protect product quality.
Manufacturers can’t afford blind spots across their supply chain.
KMS unifies supplier data, inventory records, component history, and production metrics into a single intelligence layer.
This gives quality and operations teams the visibility to catch problems upstream, isolate faulty batches immediately, and respond to quality events before they reach the customer.
From direct part marking to ad-hoc root-cause investigation tools, our supply chain solutions create a complete, compliance-ready digital thread from raw material to final shipment.
Whether you’re managing a recall, meeting regulatory requirements, or simply trying to understand why a batch failed, you’ll get fast, frictionless answers.
In precision manufacturing, quality failures are both expensive and preventable.
KMS replaces manual, Excel-driven inspection and testing workflows with AI-powered process capability platforms that give engineers real-time visibility into CPK, PPK, and MSA metrics, and predictive models that identify which products and test steps are most likely to fail before they do.
By centralizing test data and automating simulation and validation workflows, manufacturers reduce manual labor, cut the cost of defects reaching customers, and improve testing life cycles across the board.
Our models are tuned to your manufacturing context, whether that’s aerospace-grade compliance, automotive quality standards, or industrial equipment reliability.
Engineering knowledge is only valuable if it’s accessible, consistent, and trustworthy.
KMS helps manufacturers bring order to fragmented engineering data. Whether that’s standardizing and validating CAD files from dozens of global suppliers, or unifying documentation spread across PLM, ERP, and legacy systems into a single, searchable knowledge layer.
With AI-powered validation engines and natural language interfaces, engineers can query complex data sets, understand flagged inconsistencies in plain language, and act on recommendations without specialist tooling knowledge.
Clean, structured engineering data means fewer pipeline breaks, less rework, and faster handoffs across design, planning, and production teams.
Virtual commissioning is only as effective as the data behind it.
When engineering information is scattered across disconnected systems, commissioning cycles slow down, errors surface late, and go-live risk increases.
KMS builds AI knowledge platforms that connect every component, machine, robot, and production line into a unified, continuously updated graph.
Engineers are enabled to validate designs, trace dependencies, and troubleshoot issues in seconds rather than hours.
Delivered through natural language search, digital twin-like dependency visualization, and conversational AI embedded into tools like Slack and Microsoft Teams, our commissioning platforms reduce the time and risk of bringing new production lines online.
Issues are caught earlier, collaboration improves, and your engineering team can focus on commissioning instead of hunting data.
KMS designs and builds the cloud data infrastructure that enable AI initiatives — AWS-based data lakes, serverless ingestion pipelines, data quality validation engines, and reporting layers that transform raw operational data into a foundation ready for analytics, machine learning, and AI.
Using modern engineering principles including Infrastructure-as-Code, serverless compute, and scalable flat-file architectures, we build platforms that grow with your operations and serve downstream use cases.
From compliance reporting to real-time predictive dashboards, KMS delivers a data platform your entire manufacturing stack can rely on.
Unified, real-time operational visibility
Engineering, quality, and operations teams work from the same connected data layer, not disconnected snapshots.
Trusted data foundations across the supply chain
Standardized, validated data from suppliers and internal systems you can rely on.
Predictive risk intelligence
ML models that surface which products, batches, or test steps are at risk before they reach the customer.
Explainable and compliant decision intelligence
AI-driven insights with traceable logic, and audit-ready outputs that satisfy both engineering teams and regulators.
Scalable automation across delivery and operations
From testing workflows to CAD validation, automation reduces manual labor and scales with your production environment.
Digital-first engineering and commissioning
Knowledge platforms and graph visualization that accelerate commissioning cycles and reduce go-live risk.
We enable smart factories with connected systems, predictive analytics, and automation-driven processes that boost efficiency, quality, and innovation from production to delivery.
Jabil needed full lifecycle visibility across a multi-industry production network. Addepto, a KMS company, built an AWS-based traceability platform connecting raw material intake to final shipment — enabling real-time root-cause analysis and recall readiness.
Woodward’s manual, Excel-driven testing processes were slowing production and creating quality risk. KMS deployed an ML-powered visual analytics platform with predictive failure modeling — cutting manual labor by 30% and costs by 25%.
