Manufacturing

Shop floor to distributor channel - operations tooling on the Microsoft stack.

Manufacturers come to Kumo when operational reality outgrows the tools - inspections on paper, distributor management in spreadsheets, shop-floor data trapped in machines. We build the apps, portals, and data foundations that connect the plant, the channel, and the back office on the Microsoft platform manufacturers already run.

From shop-floor productivity apps to enterprise distributor portal suites, manufacturing is one of Kumo’s deepest practice areas - including regulated medical and life-science manufacturing, where governance and traceability are part of the job.

FAQ

Questions we hear a lot

What do manufacturers typically build first with Kumo?

The highest-friction workflow - often quality inspections, incident reporting, or distributor onboarding. One focused app proves the pattern in weeks, and the roadmap grows from what the first win exposes.

Does this work alongside our ERP?

Yes - the platform complements the ERP rather than replacing it. Power Platform handles the workflows the ERP is too rigid for, and integrates so data lands where the business already looks for it.
