§ Solution & Architectural Design
Solution architecture that won't break on Monday — Opcenter, ERP, and shop-floor integration
A good architecture survives handover. I design MES solutions and integrations that your team can run — with clear data models, interfaces, and a plan that avoids vendor lock-in.
Built on 20 years on UK plant floors — including work for a leading British aerospace manufacturer and others, referenced by industry under NDA.
Who this is for
- SMEs integrating Opcenter/MES to ERP (SAP, Microsoft, Oracle, Sage)
- Teams needing middleware/PI/PO design for shop-floor connectivity
- Organisations consolidating multiple systems post-merger
- Companies building an internal capability and needing design review
How it works
- 01
Understand your existing stack and constraints — ERP, middleware, legacy systems
- 02
Design the data flow and interface points that matter
- 03
Specify a solution that's maintainable by your team, not a black box
- 04
Document the architecture with diagrams and decisions you can audit
What you get
Concrete deliverables you can use immediately — no decks for the sake of it.
- Solution architecture document with sequence and data flow diagrams
- Integration design (Opcenter/MES to ERP and shop-floor systems)
- Data model outline and master data governance plan
- Middleware recommendation (PI/PO, Azure, or lightweight alternatives)
- Implementation sequence and risk register
