Plant-Floor Causality
Sensor, MES, and ERP data resolved into one causal graph from raw input to finished output. Stockouts predicted, not reported.

iQuantile for Manufacturing
Every plant has a number it cannot explain. We built the infrastructure that explains it. MES, ERP, supplier portal, and field data finally share one source of truth.
For COOs, plant leaders, and sustainability officers rewriting the rules of evidence on the shop floor.

The problem
The number you cannot explain is the
most expensive one.
Your MES does not talk to your ERP. Your ERP does not trust your supplier portal. Your engineers ship designs that fail in the field, and you find out from warranty claims. Working capital is trapped in slow inventory you cannot see across multiple factories.
Scope 3 emissions are estimated once a year, badly, and the auditor is starting to ask hard questions. The customer who pays a premium for sustainable steel wants proof you cannot produce.
The solution
The shop floor, the design office, and the supplier on one graph.
Digital Product Passport
Every product carries material origin, process parameters, and test results — ready for any auditor, any buyer, any regulator.
Supplier Network
Tier 1–N supplier data reconciled to the same ledger. Provenance becomes queryable on every batch and every certificate.
Field-to-Design Trace
Field failures trace back to the design decision that caused them in days, not months. Engineering closes the loop.
Carbon at the Gate
Carbon recorded the moment a kilogram of steel arrives. Asset-level intensity reconciled to product cost on every line.
ABC–XYZ–EESG Inventory
Inventory classification runs on every SKU, automatically. Working capital, demand variability, and ESG criticality on one axis.
How Telos works in manufacturing
An example.
A field failure is reported on a Monday. Telos traces it back through the customer's installation, the production batch, the IIoT sensor data from the cure cycle, the material genealogy, the supplier batch certificate, and the original design tolerance.
The fix is identified at the design level. The affected installed base is mapped to specific customers. The supplier scorecard is updated. The same trace produces the corrective action, the change order, and the lessons-learned record for the next product generation.

The return
What changes for the business.
Working Capital Released
Working capital trapped in inventory cut materially. ABC–XYZ–EESG classification runs on every SKU so stockouts are predicted, not reported.
Defects Caught at Source
Material and design defects caught at the source. Field failures trace back to the design decision that caused them in days, not months.
Real Scope 3, Not Estimates
Carbon recorded the moment a kilogram of steel arrives at the gate. Real Scope 3 data, asset-level, audit-ready — not annual guesswork.
Premium for Traceable Output
Premium pricing on traceable, sustainable production. Every product carries a Digital Passport buyers, auditors, and regulators accept.
The path
Six stages. One continuous arc.
Every Forja deployment moves through the same arc — assessment into strategy, implementation into intelligence, verification into growth. No stage is skipped. No deliverable is declared complete until the outcome is verified at the gate.
01Assessment
Plant · Supply · Intensity
Where the line stands, what the gap is costing you, and what it will take to close it.
- Plant, supply, and intensity diagnostic across instrumented sites
- MES, ERP, and EHS gap analysis with reconciliation cost modeled
- Cost-of-inaction quantified against working capital and Scope 3 exposure
- Yield, intensity, and disclosure indicator set with embedded KPIs
- Regulatory and customer requirement mapping (CSDDD, CBAM, IATF)
- Implementation sequencing tied to plant cadence and capital cycle
02Strategy
Yield · Intensity · Disclosure
Indicators signed by the COO and the Head of Sustainability — owned, not aspirational.
03Implementation
Forja · Agents
We stay embedded until the line produces verified output, not just integration reports.
- Forja configured across the plant, ledger live across MES and ERP
- Function agents deployed across supply, quality, and sustainability
- Change management, operator training, and Digital Passport rollout
- Causal modelling across plant-floor, design, and supplier data
- Prescriptive process change tied to verified yield and intensity
- Continuous learning against the operational ground truth of the line
04Intelligence
Telos · Q-Core
Telos reasons across the operation continuously — prescribing the next move, not describing the last one.
05Verification
Conscience · Evidence
Every claim reconciled against ISO, CSDDD, CBAM, and customer standards before it leaves the gate.
- Audit-grade reconciliation against ISO 14064, IATF 16949, REACH, CSRD
- Product Carbon Footprint assembled per batch and per SKU
- Unverified claims blocked at the system level — no greenwashing surface
- Sustainability-linked supply contracts and OEM premium tiers
- Transition finance and green capital instruments on verified intensity
- New programs underwritten on operating data, not engineering estimates
06Growth
Capital · New Programs
Verified output unlocks sustainability-linked supply contracts, transition capital, and premium offtake.
