The challenge

Leadership wanted measurable results inside one quarter, with no disruption to running operations.

What we built

Built in our Motera lab, validated on a replica rig, then commissioned on site in days using nTop and MJF.

Delivery timeline

  1. Phase 1

    Discovery sprint and site survey

  2. Phase 2

    Prototype built and tested in the Motera lab

  3. Phase 3

    Pilot on site with before/after measurement

  4. Phase 4

Highlights

  • Remote monitoring and over-the-air updates included
  • Operator training delivered in Gujarati, Hindi and English
  • Integrated with existing PLC, ERP or GIS systems — no rip-and-replace
