manufacturing execution system Dafo
manufacturing control

Real-Time Manufacturing. Without the Complexity.

Instant visibility of production, materials and operators — without spreadsheets, delays or firefighting.

Why a System — Not More Tools

Factories don’t need more tools — they need one connected system.

They need a connected, real-time system — not an ERP patch or another standalone tool.

DAFO synchronises operators, materials and workflows — so decisions are always based on live data.

No more silos. No more missing data.
A single system that aligns production, logistics, and people — in real time.

One flow, not disconnected apps

Operators, materials, workstations and schedules all update instantly.

Clear decisions, based on live data

From delays to material shortages — nothing stays hidden.

Full material control

Lots, batches, reservations and internal releases — fully traceable from purchase to finished goods.

The Dafo System — Modular. Connected. Real-Time.

Each module works on its own, but together they create a unified digital factory. Start with one, scale when ready.

AI Driven Operator Guidance

Guide and validate manual work in real time.
Deliver step-by-step AI instructions, reduce training time, and improve quality with automatic validation at every step.

DafoMES

Real-time production execution and material control.
Deploy in days, not months. Track jobs, operators, materials, lots and batches — modular, on-premise capable, and ready to integrate.

Integrated Digital Coworker

Automate admin tasks and connect tools across your factory.
Sync with Trello, Google Analytics, Mailchimp, email, and more. Ideal for lean teams who want to cut repetitive work and make better decisions.

DAFO4: Think Before You Transform

DAFO4 is our strategic methodology for digital transformation.
It helps organisations align people, systems, and workflows through four interconnected dimensions:

  • Diagnosis & Alignment: Uncover root causes and align strategic priorities across teams and systems.
  • Activity Flow Mapping: Visualise current workflows to identify inefficiencies and guide improvement.
  • Foundation Architecture: Design scalable, modular solutions grounded in your real operational needs.
  • Orchestration for Adoption: Enable sustainable change with pilots, training, and continuous feedback loops.

Let’s work together

We follow a fast, collaborative path to real results.

Discovery & Alignment

We start by understanding your challenges, aligning priorities, and defining the right use case for impact.

Pilot & Feedback

We co-design a rapid pilot to validate the solution, gather user feedback, and adapt to your real-world needs.

Tailored Integration

Our tools are modular and flexible — we integrate them into your existing workflows, with no-code or low-code setup.

Continuous Support

We stay close post-deployment, in a partnership, ensuring adoption with training, optimisation, and measurable improvements.
