Manual scanning and paper-based processes slow production and increase error rates. C5MI and KINEXON eliminate these inefficiencies with automated bookings, real-time alerts, and dynamic ePaper tags.
This automation reduces search times, enhances compliance, and improves quality control. By digitizing workflows and integrating with ERP systems, we give manufacturers full transparency and control over operations—boosting productivity without adding headcount.

Innovation starts when technology solves problems in real time. Our work with KINEXON delivers precision tracking and automation that empower teams to act faster and smarter. The KINEXON OS platform creates operational digital twins that can eliminate manual steps to enable automated event-driven processes. This partnership sets a new standard for operational excellence. It’s about creating connected environments where data drives decisions, efficiency becomes the norm, and every process is optimized for performance.
Anchors, tags, and gateways form the backbone of precise indoor localization. This hardware delivers centimeter-level accuracy for tracking assets and materials across complex environments.
KINEXON OS turns location data into actionable insights through a dynamic digital twin. It visualizes workflows and automates essential processes with geofences and triggers to boost operations.
UWB, BLE, and RFID integration ensures robust positioning and scalability. This network connects physical assets to digital processes for real-time orchestration and improved efficiency across the shop floor.
Global leaders rely on our combined solutions to standardize real-time tracking across multiple sites. Proven ROI in under 12 months demonstrates the impact on cycle times and inventory accuracy.
By integrating advanced RTLS technology with digital twin capabilities, C5MI and KINEXON deliver unprecedented visibility and control over operations. This enables proactive decision-making, reduces waste, and ensures alignment with best practices.
Stage 6
The system handles tasks.
The team sets strategy.
At full maturity, the supply chain does not wait for human decisions on routine matters. It makes them. Robots execute warehouse tasks, RPA handles transactional processes, and AI optimizes routing, scheduling, and inventory positioning. Goal-driven autonomous execution and dynamic re-tasking keep work moving while people shift from executing to overseeing systems.
Through the Automation Center of Excellence, AI practice, and Industry 4.0 capabilities, C5MI® helps organizations ready for autonomy deploy robotics, RPA, and autonomous execution as one coordinated model, not disconnected tools.
Stage 5
Stop reacting to events.
Start managing what is next.
This is the shift from reactive to proactive. The organization can see and respond but still reacts afterward. Predictability means the system anticipates what is coming, using predictive scoring, inventory forecasting, and Digital Reliability-Centered Maintenance (DRCM®) to flag demand shifts, supply disruptions, and production risks early. Leaders stop firefighting and start managing forward.
Through Live Warehouse predictive capabilities, inventory forecasting, and DRCM, C5MI® aligns inventory policy and planning with what comes next, shifting leadership from reaction to forward confidence.
Stage 4
You see what is happening.
Now the operation can act.
Visibility changes what you know. Adaptability changes what you do with it. With confidence in the data, real-time information moves from observation to action: dynamic tasking, default responses to exceptions, and workforce adjustments made in minutes rather than hours. The operation adapts to live data as it arrives, not to what a shift debrief reveals afterward.
Through the SCAR Workforce Enablement module and Live Warehouse event-driven capabilities, C5MI® gives operations governance and tools to act consistently on live data across every site.
Stage 3
The data is in the system.
Now see what is happening.
At this point, the integrations are in place and the data is there, but operations cannot see it in real time. Teams still run on lagging reports, periodic system checks, and verbal updates. This stage changes that. Instead of finding out what happened after the fact, you see what is happening as it unfolds, with live status across warehouse, manufacturing, and logistics.
Through Live Warehouse and the SCAR Live Visibility module, C5MI® turns integrated data into a single version of truth and a common operational picture, giving supervisors and leaders real-time status everywhere.
Stage 2
The systems are in place.
Now they need to connect.
This is where foundational platforms are in place but operating in isolation from one another. IT systems hold transactional data. OT systems, such as sensors, equipment, production lines, and warehouse automation, generate operational data. The two worlds are not connected, so teams still decide with incomplete information, and no one has cross-site visibility.
Through Digital Core integration capabilities and the SCAR EWM Transformation module, C5MI® bridges IT and OT, aligning systems, rationalizing applications, building auditability, and connecting data across sites.
Stage 1
You invested in the platform. Now it needs to perform.
At this stage, C5MI® builds an adaptive foundation on SAP® solutions, including SAP S/4HANA®, SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SAP EWM), SAP Transportation Management (SAP TM), and SAP Enterprise Asset Management. Most organizations arrive here with the investment made but the performance missing. The gap between what the system promised and what the operation actually gets is where C5MI starts.
By standardizing, operationalizing, sustaining, and remediating SAP Digital Core systems, C5MI delivers the performance organizations invested in and maintains it long after go-live, keeping the operation at its best.
