Cloud-based digital shopfloor management. Real-time OEE, fault capture, maintenance — for any machine, any factory, any cloud. Live in days, not quarters.
SEE NEXONIC IN ACTION

Excel sheets, clipboards, daily shift reports — every factory we walk into has the same data graveyards. Decisions are slow because the data is slow. Resilient supply chains and adaptive operations need data in near-real-time.

NeXonic is P3’s cloud-based digital shopfloor platform. Built out of two decades of operations consulting experience across automotive, machine building, and food production. Three modules — Performance, Quality, Maintenance — connect any machine, in any factory, to any cloud you prefer. Lean, fast, and read-only by design.

Real-time, real machines, real factories.

3
Modules — Performance (OEE), Quality (defect capture), Maintenance. Run them all, or start with one.
OEE
Calculated in real-time from machine controllers and sensors — the metric every factory claims to measure, finally measured properly.
0
Bytes written to your machine network — the IoT-Connector reads only, never disrupts plant communication.
Days
From scoping workshop to working pilot — not weeks, not months. Lean by design.

Three modules, one connected shopfloor.

The Performance module reads machine signals, sensor data, and operator inputs in real-time — and presents OEE, throughput, and custom KPIs on configurable dashboards. From shift comparisons to recurring failure patterns, you see the production reality your factory is actually delivering.

Live

OEE — recalculated continuously from machine and sensor data, not from end-of-shift reports.

Real-time OEE

Classic Overall Equipment Effectiveness — finally measured in seconds, not in shift summaries.

Custom KPIs

Furnace fill levels, batch yields, machine-specific metrics — define your own KPIs and dashboard them.

Configurable dashboards

Roll-up views for management, line-level dashboards for operators — same data, different cuts.

Pattern detection

Recurring downtime causes surface visually — root-cause investigation starts with evidence.
The Quality module replaces paper defect-collection sheets with a digital form on mobile devices. Operators capture defects with photos, mark locations on 3D part renderings, and the data flows directly into Pareto analyses, heat maps, and trend reports — visible to management in real time.

0

Paper defect sheets — captured digitally on mobile devices, instantly available for analysis.

Photo defect capture

Operators document defects with photos directly at the line — no manual form-filling.

3D part marking

Mark defect locations on 3D renderings for unambiguous fault localization.

Pareto & Heat Maps

Automated Pareto charts and heat maps reveal where defects cluster and which causes dominate.

Threshold alerts

Automatic notifications when defect rates exceed configured thresholds — escalations triggered automatically.
The Maintenance module connects machine signals and operator reports to maintenance workflows. From planned preventive cycles to reactive interventions on detected anomalies, the M-module turns maintenance from a calendar-driven habit into a data-driven discipline.

M

Module ties machine data, operator reports, and maintenance workflows into a single, accountable record.

Workflow support

Maintenance triggers, work-order tracking, and completion records — all integrated into the dashboard.

Data-driven cycles

Maintenance scheduling reflects actual machine state — not just calendar-based assumptions.

Failure history

Each machine carries its full maintenance history — for diagnostics, audits, and planning.

Cross-team visibility

Production and maintenance share the same data — no parallel spreadsheets, no information silos.
The IoT-Connector is the edge hardware that hooks NeXonic to your machines. Critically, it reads only — it never writes to your machine network, ruling out any possibility of disrupting machine communication. Add sensors where the controller can’t expose data — full plant coverage, low integration risk.

0

Write operations to your machine network — by architectural decision, not by careful configuration.

Read-only by architecture

Cannot disrupt machine communication — risk profile aligned with conservative IT and OT teams.

Vendor-agnostic

Works across machine vendors, controller generations, and protocol variants.

Sensor extension

Connect additional sensors directly to the IoT-Connector where the machine controller can’t expose data.

Edge processing

Local data buffering and pre-processing reduce network load and improve resilience.
The NeXonic backend runs in a P3-managed customer-specific cloud (AWS or Microsoft Azure), in your own cloud tenant, or fully on-premise. The frontend is web-based — it runs on any device with a browser, from shopfloor large-screens to operator tablets to management laptops.

3

Deployment options — AWS, Azure, or fully on-premise. We fit your architecture, not the other way around.

AWS or Azure

Run in either hyperscaler — P3 operates the cloud customer-specifically.

On-premise capable

For OT-strict or data-sovereignty cases, NeXonic runs entirely inside your perimeter.

Web-based frontend

Browsers on any hardware — shopfloor screens, tablets, smartphones, management laptops.

Role-based access

Built-in role concept tunes dashboards and report views per function — operator, supervisor, manager.
NeXonic doesn’t stop at your factory walls. It has been successfully rolled out to Tier-1, Tier-2, and Tier-3 suppliers — building digital, real-time visibility across the supply chain. BMW reference, presented at the VDA-QMC summit, showcased how this lifts quality and resilience end-to-end.

T1-T3

Supplier tiers connected — visibility extends from final assembly to component manufacturing.

Cross-tier visibility

Real-time data flows from sub-suppliers up to the OEM — no batch lag, no email PDFs.

OEM reference

Presented at the VDA-QMC summit together with BMW — proven in OEM quality contexts.

Quality at the source

Defects surface where they occur, not three tiers downstream when they’re already shipped.

Resilience signal

Supply-chain disruption becomes visible at the data level — early warning, not post-mortem.

What you gain with NeXonic.

Four outcomes our factory customers see in the first sprints

Days, not quarters

From scoping workshop to working pilot in days. Lean architecture, vendor-agnostic connector — no enterprise integration tax.

Read-only safety

The IoT-Connector cannot disrupt machine communication. OT teams and IT security stakeholders sign off faster.

Operations DNA

Built by P3 Operations — over 20 years optimizing factories. NeXonic encodes the consulting know-how into software.

From floor to OEM

Tier-1, Tier-2, Tier-3 rollouts make the full supply chain visible — proven at BMW level, scalable to your network.
