    Manufacturing Challenges Costing You Thousands Daily

    Manual Inspection Bottlenecks

    Your inspectors can only check 15-20% of output. Defects slip through, leading to customer returns, rework costs, and damaged reputation. The average manufacturer loses $156,000 annually to quality issues.

    Production Downtime & Waste

    Unplanned downtime costs $260,000 per hour for automotive suppliers. Without predictive maintenance and optimized scheduling, you're constantly firefighting instead of preventing issues.

    Labor Shortages & Wage Pressure

    With manufacturing wages up 18% in Ontario and skilled trades shortages, your labor costs are eating margins. Yet production demands keep increasing.

    Sound familiar? You're not alone. 73% of Ontario manufacturers cite operational efficiency as their top challenge. But there's a better way...
